I'd say it depends on just how aggressive your definition of "aggressive street driving" really is - and nothing is stopping you from splitting the difference anywhere between perf-street and street-track either. -1.2° to -1.3° would really be good front camber settings for some people.
Be honest with the assessment of your driving, don't simply turn it into an excuse for running a big negative camber number just so you can say that you
run -X.x° camber. If anything, downrate your estimated level of cornering aggression a little.
That said, it is possible to successfully run those street-track settings for street driving. But - and this is a really big "BUT" - you'd have to be the sort of person who typically corners up around 0.5 lateral g and who never just cruises through the turns/curves/ramps unless forced to do so by other traffic. "Never" meaning with or without passengers. Seriously. I'd guess that not one other driver in 10,000 will drive that hard that often. Kind of a long way of saying that if you're going to use settings that are closer to track-oriented you'll have to drive correspondingly harder.
Alternatively, you could mix in an autocross or two most months.
