i have -1.3 and -1.4 for the left and right respectively.

I know a little camber is beneficial for cornering, but if i were to add 1 3/8 washer per bolt, what would it bring my camber to?

Agreed, 1.8 isn't anything.
How ever you could always give a shot if you want to.

Deffinetly leave the front end alone, a bit of camber in front can be a good thing

becaue of a few people claim camber wears the crap out of their tires, which we know is incorrect.
That and shops tell them they need camber kits to have to have the or they will be replacing the tires a lot
