-2.5 in the front? do you mean the back? If you have springs, it should not drop to more than -1.0 in the front. I dropped my front 2.5 " with NEX coils and my front camber was -0.7.

I am down on H&R's (~1.3") and my front was around .5 degrees (macpherson strust don't camber out very much at all) and my rear in 1.9 degrees, and yes my tires are going bald and I have my ingalls rear kit sitting in a box on my floor, waiting for time to install. Yeah I am hoping that 2.5 degrees was a typo, also, camber doesn't change with tire size, camber with my 15" 's will be tham as someone with 19" 's, it is only a measure of an angle....
