The specs are broad and you could be way off side to side and still be within those specs.

For stock street suspension, a good alignment for sporty handling and daily driving and even tire wear might be:

Front: -.5 camber per side, toe .08 degree toe in per side, .16 degree total
Rear: -1.5 camber per side, toe .08 toe in per side, .16 total

Toe in provides stability but that small amount doesn't appreciably affect inner tire wear.

For more sporty handling, go -1.0 in front (or max you can get, and 0 toe)

Tell them to get both sides the same, that plus not too much toe will have the greatest benefit to your tire wear.

Stock suspension your range in front is around 0 to -1 camber and around -1.3/1.4 to -1.9 in the back., maybe less to keep the rear toe in line.

What are your driving and tire wear goals?
