Not particularly, unless the previous owner had some aggressive wheels on your car and cambered it out to fit. Stock from the factory is -1.5 ish in the rear and about half of that up front. If this is purely a freeway car to and from work, thats going to give you the most even tire wear. If you actually want to enjoy what the car has to offer on the weekends in the hills, your going to want a bit more negative camber, -2 to -2.25 in the rear and a similar spec up front. Tire wear will go up some, but so will performance handling and grip.

No, but I think your next mod should DEFINITELY be a larger front sway to neutralize the handling.
