excessive rear camber

Hi guys
bit of a newb question.
I have a e92 n55 335i with 275/30 tyres on the rear. I recently had some wondering and drifting of the steering wheel when I am travelling at high speeds.

I went to get my car alligned and realised the rear camber was -2.5. But because of the lowered suspension and the size of the tyres I cant reduce the negative camber.

could the wondering and drifting of the steering wheel be due to the excessive nehative camber or would the camber unlikely to have this effect?
if it is due to the camber I will have to change the rears to 265/30 and have the camber returned to around -1.6.

Thanks

it's probably due more to having toe out of spec. But that much negative camber will exaggerate any alignment issues you already have, so it's probably a bit of both.
