1 is "safer" then 2, but as long as they are correctly installed, adjusted and torqued by an alignment shop, you should be fine.

I run 2, top and bottom. Have run between -1.5 to -3.5. Setting my toe to 0 up front was the biggest improvement though

What are you worried about? OK from what happening? Heck, when they aligned my GF's car I think they got close to -1 with just the OEM struts.

If you are worried about tire wear, IE "camber wear" you should really consider adjusting your toe to zero. Toe eats up tires faster than -1.2 of camber will.

It will make the car more responsive, especially at speed. Easier for the wheels to pull or follow grooves on the free way, but nothing too bad if your already awake and paying attention

^You should run as much camber as the bolt will allow you and 0 toe.

+1

I ran -1.5 on my GD for over a year with no noticeable increase in tread wear.

Tire wear seems to be a moot point. Our last auto x was in October and we installed new tires and see zero wear problems @ -2.3 with 0 toe.
