Mine are at -1.5 (with the Koni/Eibachs), and as I stated in a post a few
days ago, these tires are showing no wear on the inner edges after 5K miles.

I'm not sure what the Doug Lewis specs are.  How much front camber are you
running?

Up until a few weeks ago my spot welds were also intact.  When I installed
the adjustable rear control arms I drilled them out and went in for an
alignment.  I was at -2 degrees in the front with Eibachs/Tokicos, and a
little tweaking with the knuckle height on the strut.

-2 degrees is a lot for the street.  While we were only able to get it
to -1.5 (I did not hog out the tops of the strut tower), the car seems a bit
more stable under heavy straight line braking and acceleration.

 My spot welds have never been cut/drilled, and my
alignment shop has never had a problem setting to the Doug Lewis specs for
lowered cars.  I have always gotten many, many miles out of my front tires
and they've always worn evenly.
