Yep, even stock there is meant to be a tiny bit of negative camber on the front (about -.25 IIRC) and a fair whack on the rear, about -1. Then, if/when you fit lowering springs both will go a bit more negative, especially the rear. The front camber can be and should be adjusted back to factory spec, but the rear camber cannot be adjusted and you just have to live with it. I have VAP springs so 7/8" lower, and I reckon my rear camber is around -1.5 so not too bad and I haven't had any problems with excessive tyre wear on the inside edges. Very different story with my old XFS when I put Eibach springs on it (rear drop 1.5" I think), the negative camber went through the roof and the inside edges of the tyres chewed out in no time! Going by unhingd's experience a 1.5" rear drop on the F-Type doesn't seem to be as bad.
