That is a little low, but not impossible to get it aligned properly with a good shop willing to take the time to do it correctly. I also run BC C/O's, BUT I did add Moreno Camber plates to allow for caster adjustment. So, you may want to have it raised a bit with a number of spins on the C/O collar nuts, and try a alignment again. My dealer took 2 hours to get mine exactly where I wanted it, but much of the time was tweaking the camber plates dialing in the trade off between Caster and Camber. Lots of Camber is great for handling, but obviously hard on tire wear.
My Specs:
Frt Cm = -.9/-1.0
Frt Cs = 7.6/7/7 (more than stock target of 5.3 to 6.8 is a good thing)
Frt Toe = 0.07/0.07
Rr Camber = -0.7/-0.6 (cam bolts just about maxed out)
Rr Toe = 0.01/0.01

Note how all R/L results are within 0.1 degree or less! The engine bay pic showing the camber plates was pre-alignment, they are rotated as necessary and the locking bolts indexed to dial in caster.
