If you are worrying about tire wear, you should worry about toe and get an alignment and not bother with a camber kit. Some people are running like -4 degrees on their camber.

they will not do an alignment for me, they said the rear tires need to have a camber kit first.

Either they're playing dumb and want to charge you more for an alignment with a camber kit OR they're just dumb.
