Op, it's best to start your research with what camber, caster, and toe are, then the effects they have. Once you have the basic graphical understanding, then it'll be much much easier to conduct the research and find the answers you seek.

There is no one size fits all alignment. What the optimum alignment is depends on your driving style. IMHO Stock alignment will be just fine unless your driving consist of consistent corner carving at the limit.

I think Baer's numbers are just very slightly more aggressive than stock, probably still within the tolerance of oem alignment range. His hardwares are probably what you will need to buy.

Looks like you are on the Megan springs? Doesn't look like a big drop, you may get away without those new arms and bolt that Baer had mentioned, but I'm not 100%
