Question about the new Tein Basis

I am about to take the plunge and get the new Basis coilover system for my 03 TL-S. How low can i go before i will get uneven tire wear? any suggestions to correct that? I just replaced every single suspension component up front.
I dont want all that work and $$$ to go to waste....

toe affects tire wear and a good align will fix that
lowered will go negative camber and toe out
without a camber kit we accept the neg 1- 1.5 degree as good
no severe wear on my or other ziners at that setting

Dont let shop screw you- only toe adjust front and rear,,get a deal on price
the rear is where you see more wear

generals on the rear have over 50kmiles and still look perfect with zero toe and 1.4 neg
camber
my 01 sits on 18s with tein SS, (spend the extra$ for SS adjustable dampening)
at teins suggested starting height, about 1-2 finger gap tire to fender
Low but not dropped
