IF you corret your toe settings. It isn't camber that kills tires, it's lowering a car and not adjusting the toe settings that kills tires early.
However, Negative camber, while giving better traction through hard cornering will also decrease stability at high(i mean red-line in fifth) speeds in a straight line.
So yeah, go for the alignment job, I mean it's always a good thing no matter what. But a more complete suspension would be nicer.

What? Where'd you hear that one? So if I put a 5" heel on your left foot and a sandal on your right foot you aren't going to have any problems walking?
-3 negative camber is a bit excessive. Even some autocrossers only go up to 2 degrees.
So a combination of toe and camber will make your tires wear out quicker. So you can either 1) buy a camber kit, 2) raise the car up, or 3) just live with buying new tires every 3 months.
