Alignment to avoid fethering?

I just visited the neighborhood NTB and had them mount my Hankook v12's. But I always noticed how all four of my tires wore on the inside. The tech kept arguing with me that since they were within spec I wouldn't have a problem with wear. My argument to him was the 4 tires on the floor all wore uneven on the inside, with the current specs. Its a lot easier to see on the other sheet that most of them were right at the break of out of spec. But since it was in the limits he was refusing to adjust them. Should I go back and raise hell to get them closer within "spec'? Or does this look fine?
I have the front camber kit installed and the rear kit sitting in the garage...But im hoping that since I went with the 350z h tech drop that I wouldn't need the rear kit. How much adjustment can we get out the stock bolt in the rear?

With front camber kits you can do way better then that. I believe that's what my camber(front) is without a kit. Your total toe should be closer to spec as well. Take it somewhere else.

So on 350z H-Tech's, the front camber kit is more required than the rear one, is that correct?

For the most part. Here is my alignment specs after installing 350z Tokico HP shocks and 350z H-Tech springs

A lot of red there. So sorry to threadjack OP but would you recommend getting both fronts and rears?

Yea but toe is most important to get into spec. That's what will chew through tires. The rears aren't off by much at all and I haven't noticed them having camber wear issues yet in 10,000 miles. Fronts have some slight wear but nothing serious yet.

Make sure your looking at my "current measurement" specs. A lot less red there. The rears are only .1 off spec which is nothing to worry about. Toe is in spec. Front is about .4 off which kinda sucks but I can live with it.

why would you have a camber kit on the front and not the rear? thats *** backwards..most only put a camber kit on the rear and not on the front..fronts can usually get into spec unless really lowered but the rears always need it with an inch drop or more in the back
