Ideal front camber?

Ideal front camber?
I got steeda sports and koni yellows installed and ended up with a bit of camber. I didnt expect to have camber any since i didnt get C/C plates, but they said they did a "performance alignment" and there definatly is some camber that i didnt expect.
does this appear to be too much or would this actually be more beneficial than it is harmful?

Next time, please make this question as a new post in your existing spring/strut install thread. It is relative to that one and helps others to follow what has happened
From the image, it would appear you have probably 1.25* or so, but certainly don't know for sure. This is about what I would expect and could consider this a "performance alignment" for cornering. It will, however, add to tire wear on the inside edge and shorten the overall life of tires, if you are not regular with tire rotations. If you are and you like corners, I would consider leaving it and just moving the tires around in a proper rotational pattern and your good.

The negative camber gain came from lowering your car, not from an adjustment. A little bit of additional negative camber on an S197 helps in the cornering department, so I wouldn't worry about it. Just stay on top of your tire rotations. (if you're not staggered)
