Spec is -.050 +/- .075 Which means you could still be in spec at -1.25. So yeah, you're 1/2 degree too negative. Your tires should be leaning in at the top and wearing on the insides

I think 4-bolt are only required past 2*, but if you ever go to coil-overs or anything, you need 4-bolt.

Drilling the 4th hole isn't that scary, it's actually pretty tough to mess up, and you get a lot more adjustability out of it.
