espelirs installed..camber/alignment questions

I just finished installing my springs this morning while keeping the stock shocks. The ride is very nice, not too rough, close to stock even. I got the car aligned right away and plan on going back in a couple weeks, any how here are the specs on the rear wheels in question after they did what they could.

left rear
camber: Now= -0.9 Before= -0.8 Specified Range= -1.6 to -.1
toe: Now= .21 Before= .45 Specified Range= .13 to .33

right rear
camber: Now= -1.7 Before= -1.6 Specified Range= -1.6 to -.1
toe: Now= .29 Before= .33 Specified Range= .13 to .33

So my question is, Is it really bad for the right and left camber angles to be off from each other by that much or is that not a big deal?

Thanks

Only if it doesn't drive and track straight. If it drives and tracks straight then it doesn't matter. There will be no noticable difference in tire wear.
