My records show .3 to -.3 front and -1.2 to -1.7 rear as OE default for US spec.
I don't have what the limet for stock suspension is.....but it's beyond these ranges for sure.

Lower the car and you can get up to 2 degree negative camber front and back no problem

I'm not sure how you could get -2 in the front without cutting some metal.

My settings would indicate your records are right because I was able to get about 1 degree more than stock delivery without any modification. I have the full RUF suspension which is basically a custom valved PSS9, springs and rear sway bar. The car is lowered down practically onto the tires because it is primarily my track car. With the front top mounts pushed all the way in and the lower adjustment all the way out I was able to get -1.3/-1.4 in the front and -2.4/-2.6 in the rear.
