Depends on how hard you drive. If your tires aren't wearing evenly, its time to add some negative camber.

Let's say you look at a car from the front. If the tops of the wheels are protruding out from the wheelarches like so

That is positive camber.

If the tops are leaning inward and the bottoms are protruding outward like this:

/ \

That is negative camber. And this:

is no camber.

Try googling camber.
