In fact most cars has positive camber as this is what provides the self centering action of the steering. Don't ask me how it works but I know from bitter experience that it does. When playing with my previous triumph based Marlin I adjusted the camber so that it was negative - ok so it looked cool but all the self centering disapeared and it was not nice to drive.
I guess that what you are seeing is normal because:
A. You very rarely use full lock
B. It probably is exactly the same on the donor but you don't notice because the whhels are mainly covered bu the bodywork.
It was my intention to intially set up my suspension with the standard BMW settings whwre possible - seems like a good place to start from.
