My $.02.

There are some other factors not mentioned. How sticky are the tires and what are the rim widths.

There will be some trial and error to choose the best compromise for your alignment settings.

I was running similar tire sizes and had about -1.5 degree camber front and rear. Zero toe front and 1/16" toe in at the rear. (sorry degrees confuse me, ever since I failed trig). I found that at the track the outer edges wore more, but on the street the insides wore, so it evened out.

Now I run more on the track with sticky tires so I went to -2.25 degrees front and rear. No problem with wear, but the straight line stability is not as good.

So start with about -1.5 degrees front and rear, then keep an eye on tire wear. Then adjust as you see fit. BTW, it helps that I do my own alignments.
