I'd skip the spacers if you're not too far off w/ the new wheels, a couple hundred bucks you can put toward the new shoes
Your rear right toe is way off, you should at least get a rear toe kit or your tires will really shred quick.

If your camber is close it's not too bad but if your toe is out then you need to get it fixed. Toe bolts aren't very expensive (well under $50) but you do have to do some drilling to get them installed. I'm not able to read your alignment but I find it odd that your toe is out just from springs.

Especially just the right side toe, I'd expect them to have trouble w/ both sides if that was the case.

I would have them re-set the rear left toe. They may need to increase the camber a little to improve the toe but it would be better.
It's a blurry pic - what did they set the front right camber at? Is it greater than -2.0? It shouldn't be.

For comparison my car is lowered a bit more and they set my rear toe at 0.11L & 0.15R. The camber is -1.8L & -1.7R.
The fronts are a little bit adjustable. They managed to get my toe, both sides, too 0.05 with the camber around -1.7
Edit: no after market camber kits

I'm dropped on coilovers about the same as a typical S-Tech drop w/ SPC F&R camber arms/and rear toe kit, and my alignment specs are~
Front Left Camber-.2 Right -.1
Front Left Toe .05 Right .03
Rear Left Camber -.6 Right -1.0
Rear Left & Right Toe .08

So there was another way to do it without issues should I make them do it over??
