What are your alignment specs on your lowered Nismo?

I am in the process of getting my Nismo aligned after swift springs drop but would like to retain a slight bit of negative camber. Any information pertaining to your experience would be greatly appreciated and would be helpful for others (I hope).

Nismo 370 Alignment Specs:
Front
Camber -.58
Caster 8.17
Toe 0.03

Rear
Camber -1.58
Toe 0.08

I am just wondering if your alignment factory specs are correct (front and back)? I always thought the front camber stock settings were -1.58 for the Nismo? The reason I ask is that FINALLY SPL Parts in Austin has a 2nd generation prototype ready for testing for the front camber arms for the 370z. I have only been harassing them for 2+ years now. If all goes well, I will be the lucky one to test these out next week at Harris Hill and I want to know exactly what the factory settings for camber, caster and toe are (front at least anyway) before they make changes. Granted, we will take measurements before we install the new hardware but I am looking for the exact measurements before the change out. I have an 09 Nismo. At this point I am just going to leave the rear end alone and see what happens. Thanks for any help.

I know with my tein springs. (almost an inch and a half drop) my camber upfront is sitting at -1.6/-1.7..... so factory must be in that -.5/-.6 range stock. the sheets from nissan are on the forum somewhere.

rear i remember factory camber being something like -1.4/-1.6 im at -2.2ish with no camber kits.

im eating tires every 10-12k miles
