Default tein s-tech camber?

so i recently picked up a set of tein s-tech springs for my daily and im now concerned about camber. i really dont want to have any camber but i think i could live with half a degree of negative camber because i dont think that should put any excess wear on my tires. can anyone rockin s techs confirm? will i need a camber kit? and if i do what do you recommend? there so many choices from the adjustable ball joint with like .75 dgrees + or -all the way to control arms. and another thing i was wondering is will integra sway bars fit on my 94 dx sedan? and will they be an upgrade to whats on there or will they not even fit? thanks in advance. im lookin forward to hearing your advice.

I installed a set on my '00 EX Friday and done an alignment today after work. With the s-techs installed I had (camber) -0.5 LF, -0.9 RF, -1.9 LR, -2.0 RR. I see non-modified cars with camber readings similar to this often but I would like to be a little closer to one degree negative on the back so I may buy a camber kit for the rear even though it's not absolutely necessary. I'm fortunate enough to be able to do my own alignments though so i don't have to drop $60-$120 every time I make a change.

camber has far less of an impact on tire wear than toe. negative camber is good for handling. Im running camber -2 F and -1 R and toe at 0 all around with perfect tire wear.

X2...Having spot on toe is the key.
