Default Alignment Spec

I just got the alignment done after installing Tein S-Techs springs (already settled). I was trying to compare with OEM specs, but still not sure that my setup will get away with tire wear. Most members here know more than I do about alignment, so I decided to post it up here. Hopefully, someone can tell me that I won't have tire wear issue.

Thanks in advance.

I would get that toe closer to 0 - .02. I would also get the camber in the front to match at about 1.5 on each side.

it will work. I suggest a rear camber kit. Yes the rear is in specs but you really don't need/want more that -1.6 on the street.The front is fine, but if you want best tire life put the stock springs back in or buy a civic for a DD

I just got the alignment done again. I was be able to adjust the rear, but the front remain the same. Here is my current specs.

Front: Camber (-1.6L), (-1.4R)
Caster (8.0L), (8.4R)
Toe (0.03L), (0.06R)

Rear: Camber (-1.5L), (-1.6R)
Toe (0.07L), (0.10R)

Question:
1) Do I really need a camber kit for the front?
2) I'm thinking to cut the spring mount for 1/4in to level the car. Will I have any issue with camber since I was be able to adjust from -2.1 to -1.5?

Thanks.
