Guess I'm a little late here, but:

In my opinion the stock camber setting is already a sacrifice of tire
wear. The spec is positive camber, which helps grandmas drive in a
straight line and is only useful if your really pounding the truck (off
road/loaded). I would at least zero it out if not go to -.5deg. That
would maximize your tire wear and help you handling a bit. If you want
to be more aggressive go 1-2 deg of neg camber. You'll sacrifice some
tire wear and drivability, but make up for it in handling. And if you
like me, you'll still get "even" tire wear ];)
