Wont' matter all that much I don't think. Any camber you do have will be absorbed by the jello sidewall. But I think I have about 1* negative camber. As the truck leans outwards in turns the outside tires experience positive camber change. The more it leans, the more positive camber is introduced on the outside tires.

I don't run that much negative camber because I prefer my tires to last a long time at $100 a set. So I'll sacrifice the cornering.
