Lowering and Camber

Lowering and Camber
How many of you have lowered your car and then put in camber bolts. I did mine on Saturday and had the alignment checked today and it's WAY off. They can't even adjust the camber back into spec without camber bolts. Do you guys just not care about tire wear or was I just not paying enough attention to needed parts? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
Thanks!

I had my alignment checked after installed Progress springs. The camber is negative but only about 1 degree; the track was straight, didn't need any adjustment. After almost 12k lowered miles, tires worn pretty evenly, don't show more wear on the inside than outside. I do rotate them every 6k miles.

I rotate my tires every oil change so I know the impact will be minimized. 1 degree is a quite a bit to off though; especially when you consider they give a window of 1 1/2 degrees to work within. I know that you can achieve better cornering with a higher degree of negative camber but it also slows you down and is not good for extended highway which I frequently do.
