Default Alignment question

So im gonna be gettin the car aligned about next week its been 2 weeks since i got my F&F Type II's installed, im pretty much maxed in the front, and back has about 18 treads left, i would say about 1 finger gap. Im on stockies right now. Is there a partical number i should tell the alignment shop to align as far as negative camber goes, Ex: (R:-2 F:-1) or should i just let them do it how its usually done and let them adjust them to OEM specs. Basically what im asking is how much camber should i run front and back.

Stock. No need to run excessive camber on a street car, especially with stock wheels. Excessive camber will also accelerate tire wear and cause it to wear unevenly.

The most important thing for tire wear is to get the toe zero'ed out.
