Yes, I know this may be hard for some of you jackholes to believe but adding TOO MUCH camber to the front or rear of a car can screw up it's handling balance. And adding camber for the purpose of looks and not handling is stupid, and yes it will make your tires wear out faster on the inside edge. Even most car newbs know that.

Yes toe will wear out tires faster too. So will excessive negative camber. You don't need a bunch of excess camber when driving on the street. You shouldn't be driving at the handling limit (at least not if you're smart) on the street, so you don't need more camber than the factory setting. If you are going to a track day, then you need a performance oriented alignment.

where am I getting all this info? The internet, books, magazines... it's called research you should try it some time. Might learn a thing or two.
