The rear camber actually increases as the suspension compresses to improve grip. If you straightened the rear wheels out, it would hurt handling.

Most cars that come from the factory are setup to induce understeer at the limit. Reason being is so people don't end up spinning their cars out on the street. Neg. camber in the rear will help you keep it in check better. With being able to get the car get some oversteer in mind, I have my car set close to 0.

Stock spec in front is around -0.5. The stock spec in the rear is -1.18 rear. Stock variation would be plus or minus 0.75 from those specs.
