I'm definately no suspension expert.. but your camber does seem fine.. not off much
sitting really close to -1 degrees on all 4's seems to be alright. Although you may want to consider the K-Mac camber, I am just gunna install it to be safe.. but only on the fronts.

it means how much his wheels are "crooked" as a result of lowering the car.
When you go from stock to aftermarket, the car typically gets lowered. By lowering the car you are adjusting the camber of the wheels, which is the degree to which the wheels are bent or straight. For instance, -1 degree camber would mean that particular wheel is leaning inwards (towards the car) by 1 degree.

You better correct your toe...
You have way too much, especially in the rear. You'll be wearing the outside edges of your tires in no time.
Your camber is higher than stock, but it's not that bad. Not like Honda/Acura which can easily get over -2.0 degrees from lowering.
Your cross camber/caster values are pretty good. Even better considering there's nothing you can do about them with the factory adjusters.
