Default Camber Shims and 25mm spacers installed.

Here are some pictures. 25mm spacing -5 degree negative camber. 16x8 inch +35 Rota PDCs. Now I'm just waiting on my Progress coilovers so I can set it down over the tires. I may switch out to the -3 degree shims, not sure yet. Kind of like the severe angle. Not sure how its going to handle though. Wont be able to find out until my coilovers get here.

I'm not sure what drag a$$ means? Accelerated tire wear is an obvious effect to expect. Tires at 60 bucks a pop. I think I'll be able to cope.

true, 60 a tires isn't bad at all, I was just saying I'm not partial to the look of the uneven wheel stance, i.e. even in the front and neg. camber in the back, but like I said thats just me.

I'm looking into my options of getting 2 if not 3 degrees of negative camber in the front. I'm not having any luck on setups that will work with my Progress coilovers. Anyone with any suggestions. I would be happy with -2 in the front.

When I get my coilovers and get it lowered down a little more, then I'll post some side shots, right now its nothing exciting because there is about 1 inch of tire gap. My H&R springs dont cut the mustard.

Wow that looks good! You need to take a pic of the whole back.
Have you looked into some Cusco camber plates for the front.
