Rear:
Camber: -1.54/-2.24
Toe: 0.0/0.0

So, it seems the front toe is actually very slightly positive, not sure if this is out or in, it doesn't say. The spec says minimum -0.45 and max +0.45 degrees, again, doesn't really give me anything to determine if it's in or out.
The rear camber stands out as very uneven, but apparently that was the best they could do with no adjustable rear arms.

The car is lowered just shy of an inch, and I run 20mm spacers front and 25mm rear. Stock wheels, 225/45-17 Michelin Pilot Sport 3 front and rear.
The stock specs have so much leeway that it can be between undrive-able, to stable, but scrubbing rubber. I tell my alignment tech what to align it to. I ask for 1 degree negative camber on the front, 0.00 degrees toe. As close to even camber on the rear as possible with stock LCA's, and .05 degrees toe-in on each side for a combined .1 degree toe-in on the rear only, no toe-in at all on the front. I get mine aligned after every suspension change.
