Default camber kit?

my car is lowered 2.5 inches(1995 civic hatch) and I wanted to adjust the camber alignment because the tread is uneven.......what kit would be the best and how many degrees should it be adjusted on back and front?

Is your toe set properly? This will affect your wear much much more than camber.

i dont think so, but is it worth it to buy adjustable cambers for handling then, and not necassarily wear, what kit would be the best to buy?

A bit of camber is better for handling, actually.

What seems to be one of the popular kits is the Skunk 2 kit...I have the SPC camber kit which adjusts caster and camber and it works great (i was having the same problem)...there is no definate answer we can give you to how many degrees...best bet would be to try to eyeball it, or the recomended solution is to take it for a proper alignment...
