Default just got my alignment and need to know..

I just want your guys opinion on my specs and if i need a camber kit. I know there are thousands of post,and im sorry for another, but none of them really answered my questions. This is for a 94 integra..
My front specs are -2.08 and -1.94
rear specs are -1.73 and -1.51
and the toe is .01 The range for the front is -1.17 to .83. Im not too far out of range but will this cause a lot of tire wear since the toe is almost perfect? Thanks for any help, im probably just being paranoid but id rather get some opinions from people that know what they are talking about which is why i love this place.

You are fine on the street as long as you rotate your tires every oil change or so. Those camber specs aren't too bad but if you want better tire wear then get a camber kit because 2 degrees and up you are going to get tire wear. As mentioned, if you rotate you can prolong the life of the tires tremendously.

The specs that you get from the shop are factory specs. When you lower your car, you want to get as close to zero as you can (for street use). If you plan on leaving the camber where it is then rotate as previous poster recommended. Rotate every other oil change should be fine.
Your specs aren't that bad at all.. That's about as good as you can get with a lowered car w/o camber kit.
