More than -1.5 degrees of camber will result in inside edge wear unless a significant portion of your miles are autocross, or track.

Remember, for the most part, Scott doesn't drive his on the street much.

At -2.5, -2, you will wear inner edges as well on road courses with significant braking zones, though it will really feel good doing so.

Typically, for optimal grip at autocross/track, fronts are .5 degrees more than rears.

I am currently at -1.3 degrees front (max stock), and -1.5 rear (no camber bolts/arms yet) and it handles pretty well at the track. I think -1.5, -1 would be a nice compromise setup if you have rear bolts/arms.

A little toe out on the two ends can help turn in and rotation at the expense of tires, and street driveability.
