Alignment

I got my alignment done today and here is the result:
final results are:
Front: Caster: L2.7 R2.8 Range: 1.8 to 3.8
Camber: L-0.3 R-0.5 Range: -1.0 to 1.0
Toe: L0.00 R-0.05 Total: 0-.05 Range: -0.15 to 0.15
Rear: Camber: L-1.8 R-2.0 Range: -1.0 to 0.00
Toe: L0.10 R0.15 Total: 0.25 range: 0.00 to 0.30

After searching through the threads, most acura owner are saying rear negative camber of -1.0 degree is still okay without a camber kit.

Only concern i am having right now is the TOE for the front and back. they are not 0.00. The front is -0.05 and rear is 0.25. There is a member saying that toe of 0.20 will wear out the tires fast, would my toe result have problem in sense of wearing out tires?

If so, can i get my dealer (northshore acura) to readjust the back toe? Please help.

In addition, will the dealer say no to me b/c i have lowered the car and my tire size is 215/55/16 which is smaller diameter and off by 1.4%???
