Can't answer your query, but keep an eye on inner edge tyre wear at the back, and also be aware the handling may be less predictable due to the excessive camber

Rear camber is not independently adjustable - it has to be a compromise with rear toe, thus I suspect you won't be able to dial out all the camber, so keep an eye on the bits I susggested :y
