Yup, that's what they do. Personally I would set it up for -0.75° to -1.0° and live with a bit of tire wear. -0.50° is not enough camber and will make the car handle like your grandfather's '88 Buick Park Avenue, in even moderately tight turns...

In researching aligment specs for lowered Mustangs, I came across this on Maximum Motorsport's web site, within the installation instructions. Thought I would share the info with those following this thread:

"We recommend that caster be set to 4.5 degrees
positive for street cars - but do not adjust the plate
beyond the halfway point without special attention to
bumpsteer detailed below. For race cars we
recommend that the caster be set to 6.5 degrees
positive, or at the limit of adjustment on the plate -
with mandatory attention to bumpsteer. The Mustang
responds favorably to increased positive caster. The
reason: The more positive the caster setting, the more
negative camber the loaded tire will gain while
cornering. We recommend that camber be set to .5 degree
negative for street cars, never positive as Ford allows.
For race cars we recommend 1.5 to 2.5 degrees
negative camber. Some cars/drivers need more
negative camber for optimum handling and tire wear.
Keep an eye on your own tire wear and make
adjustments as necessary.
We recommend setting the toe to the factory spec of
.5 degree toe-in for street use. For race cars we
recommend .5 degree toe-out."
