On the street?

Bad: Lower contact patch, increased inside tire wear if your toe isn't set right.

Good: Your wheels will fit.

There are a lot of questions still to be answered. Are you on stock suspension, lowered, etc.? Max camber could be -3 or if you're stock you won't get more than about -2.

There is no reason to max your camber front or back for the driving you are doing. If you aren't tracking or driving canyons you should run 1 deg max in the front, 1.75 degree max in the back and put your caster at 6.5 to 7. You could even consider a little less camber in the front, like .75 deg.
