I don't know; maybe someone else here does. Or, better yet, you might get more expertise in the Suspension forum, if this is for street use, or the Road Racing forum, if it's for the track (since this forum is for wheels and tires).

Good choice on tires, BTW; buy by August 26 so you can get the $40 rebate...

My car sits about 2.5" lower than stock( about as low as your setup) and I run 1.5" neg. camber each side.
You're going to need a camber kit though, unless you want to run even more camber (2-3 degrees), and significantly reduce the life of your tires.
My advice: get a quality camber kit ( Skunk2) and a good alignment from a shop that can adjust camber kits.
