Default Suspension Q: Who runs camber kit with their lowered suspension setup?

Who here has lowered suspension setup and runs camber kit to prevent excessive tire wear?

What is the limit in # of inches of drops before your camber is out of spec? Tires are not cheap... and just want to know.

It has been repeated quite a few times that a camber kit is primarily for dailing in the cornering behavior, not for reducing tire wear (only if you lower it too much). As long as your camber is within -2 degree it should be quite tire friendly.
