Toe is what kills tires, not camber. I run zero toe and maxed-out front camber and don't have excessive tire wear. I have had my car set up this way for the past 20,000 miles and I'm still on the same tires. The tires are wearing very evenly.

It's simple to do.

1) Raise the front of the car (you can do one corner at a time if you like)
2) Loosen (but do not remove) those three nuts.
3) Push the top of the strut inward as far as it will go and hold it there
4) Tighten to spec those three nuts

Do the same on the other side.

Doing this will also change the front toe setting on your car, so you'll need to get it realigned after this change.
