That looks like around -2 to -2.5 deg camber. If you want it to handle well you'll want a camber kit to lower that. If you just lowered your car your toe may be out of whack too which is really what's going to ruin your tires.
 
Toe is front to back alignment right? Like the back of the car would be steering itself somewhere...? And camber is top to bottom like the pic right? Also what would be a good camber kit to use? if I had the car from the beginning I wouldnt even bother lowering it but w/e LOL, thanks for the replies.
 
Oh yea I was looking under the back today and saw that there are adjustment cams for toe and camber...is this a factory adjuster? Can the camber be fixed with this or I have to order the kit??

I'm not sure. There should be some adjustment with the factory stuff but, most likely not enough for the amount of negative camber you have. It'll be best to get the rear kit.
 
I have that same exact kit.

Super easy to do the only hard part is getting that bolt to break loose. soak it and I mean soak it in pb blaster for a while a couple of times a day.

It also helped that I didn't have my rear strut in the car.
You can go to oreillys and get front camber bolts for like 20 dollars and put them in the front to help the front camber.

this is my rear camber with a 2" drop

The only real way to find out if they are in too far is by puting it on an alignment machine. But if the ecsentric bolt is maxed out you need a camber kit.
 
nono I installed the camber kit from DME, the pic is my results of both adjusters all the way out
