Most folks go with a little more negative camber than factory settings... but still within the formal specs. Also, with 285/30 x 18 rears you really need at least an 8" rim in front to counter the additional understeer of the wider rear tires.

Your dealer's alignment expert needs to go back to school again.

Either way it sounds like you need to take it to someone else.
