in my opinion... unless you're dropped (which isnt the case) you really shouldn't need a camber kit. the oem arms should have an enough wiggle room to get you back into spec. the extra 125 lbs really shouldn't take you significantly out of range. hell, that's just another passenger!
-1.5 is still factory spec (the max, i believe) and the wear you posted doesnt seem like -1.5 to me with all the meat left on the outer tire. i would take it to a tire shop and ask for them to measure it out for you first (shouldn't cost much or anything at all to get a reading). you should be looking at, at most -1.5camber in the front and at most +/- 0.125toe for tirewear. if anything is outside the range, i feel it should be correctable with oem suspension.
That is what I was thinking originally. I was surprised to see the tires wearing that badly. The dealer didn't give me camber specs, but it definitely is off. I was under the impression that there is ZERO adjustability with the stock setup. Is that not the case?
