Not sure what the point is in needing camber for wheels that fit perfect but for the rear wheels you need to space the bottom two bolts out between the rear hub and the beam.

You'll need the washers to go between the Hub and the beam which its bolted to so that the bottom of the hub is pushed out, you cant put washers between the wheel & the hub as the wheel will wobble as it spins round.
i've used 1 washer on each bottom bolt, each washer was about 3mm thick iirc which gives me this much negative camber:


I'm not sure how it will effect your tyre wear/drive as your tyres would be pretty narrow on steels but the tyres on my wheels stilll wear fairly even tbh.
Personally the only reason i've used a bit of neg camber is to fit the wheels now i've built them to a wider spec

Yeah you should be able to, what size are they? 13"? and what size tyres?
I'm sure you could go quite low on them without too much hassle, i'm using FK coilovers and could go -80mm on my standard 13" steels with the standard size tyre (cant remember the exact size off the top of my head) and it didn't scrub at all as the rolling radius was near the same to a set of 15" wheels running 45 profile tyres
