Toe-in is what really kills tires, not so much neg camber. One of the problems with lowering springs is it gets the rear of the car too low and this screws with suspension geometry and alignment. Adjustable toe links will help, and if you can get the car lower in the front than the rear with a slight forward rake, it will handle much better. Stock ROW suspension is factory-tuned to the car pretty well so it is difficult to "improve" on it without going to adjustable coilovers.
