He said in his experience more than ~2.5 front/2.0 rear on street tires isn't beneficial. He recommended I get some suspension upgrades, at least stiffer springs and if coils he recommended RCE Tarmac 2. The reasoning being even if I increase camber the soft stock suspension is still going to cause edge wear on the tires.

Does this sound reasonable? I was hoping not to spend a lot of $ on suspension.
I was totally content running ZII SS with camber plates and everything else stock. I really liked the car running -3.2 degrees camber up front and OE rear (~1-1.5 degrees).

You're not going to break anything running what you've got, enjoy it, one of the best bangs for the buck imo.
