Hmm, maybe that's why the alignment shop disregarded my instructions and used the camber bolts in the front instead of the back. The thing is, I had a guy I know check my camber a year after the alignment and things didn't add up. The original alignment results showed ~-1.4 in the front and ~ -1 in the rear (which is pretty much what I asked for). But when my buddy checked it with his fancy new alignment tools, he showed I was running -1.1 on both front wheels and -1 in the rear. He forgot his breaker bar, so that's what I'm still running today.

And you're right, AGX will blow out prematurely if you couple them with Tein S-Techs (I think those are pretty low) or the like, but they are designed to work with a moderate drop and mine still dampen like a mofo 2 years after the install. They'd work great with STI springs.
