I got my new wheels Volk GT-AV Gloss Black 19" 8.5 et 24 & 10.5 et 23 with Toyo T1-R 245/35/19 & 275/35/19. I don't plan to drop my car so, I went for an alignment and the print out below shows my current alignment status. I got the lifetime alignment from firestone ($99)

Do you think the camber is off? Will it cause excessive inner/inside tire wear?

Your front are fine. Your back is off. There not within specs. Go pick up SPC Camber adjustments if you want something cheap that works.

you are off by a LITTLEE bit. honestly thats nothing. i wish i could show you my camber specs. my mechanic gets is very close every time and in all honesty that small of a difference will not make a huge impact. now if your not comfortable w/ it thne you can get camber arms. but i dont think its worth it for such a small amount. the left rear is a bit off, but make sure he maxed out the positive camber. unless you dropped it the car shouldnt have a camber issue. take it back say they didnt do it right..

I agree with what papagz said ^^^. My specs have the same numbers you have, and I've been doing fine with about almost 17,000 miles on my tires already.

Great choice on wheels!!! But of course I would be a bit bias, considering:

Tein H-techs (350Z). It's not really that low, maybe it's the Nismo front that gives it that illusion.

at least you got your toe fixed. I bet you were burning through tires. Your cambers numbers are perfectly fine. On a sports car they is suppose to be neg camber, even more if you lower your car. My old M3 had over neg 3 degrees of camber in the back, talk about rails.

Your camber is fine.. some SPC toe bolts and camber arms ($400) would fix you right up.

By the way, this is bad camber:
