It really depends on the car, and will take some tuning to get it just right.

I don't have adjustible camber parts yet, but with a 1" drop on those same shocks I am getting 2 deg camber in the back and 1 deg in the front. The tire temps after a really hard drive up the mountains show that 2 deg is too much for the back, and 1 deg is too little for the front......and thats about all the info I can give you.

The car isn't drivable right now, but next alignment for me will be 1.75 up front and 1.25 or 1 in back.

This is all assuming you have camber plates and a rear camber adjuster?
