my alignment specs...
I just got my car aligned. The only 2 specs I'm a lil worried about is
1) the rear right camber is 0.0 degree (rear left camber is -1.1)
2) front right caster is -0.1 degree (should be between 0.7 -2.7)
should i be worried about those? or are they ok? I dont want my tires to wear away quick, will those specs make them wear faster?

A little camber is good. 0 camber is bad for the outside shoulders of the tire during cornering. Those look fine to me.

As long as the toe is corrected and/or in spec, those numbers are fine. The camber isn't negative enough to notice anything and it won't wear your tires anywhere near as quickly as bad toe numbers will. And plus, most cars come stock with slightly negative camber and that seems to be what you have.
