Anyone with lowered suspension: Do the rear tires have to angle in? V70-XC70 2001

I had a complete sport suspension installed, which lowered my V70-T5 35 mm (eibach Springs and Sachs Shocks), and the rear wheels angle out at the bottom but only slightly.

I have heard that the lower you go, the more likely to have angling of the wheels. Is this always the case? Is there a way to correct it? I assume my shop knew what they were doing but wanted to ask.

I have seen this affect much worse on BMWs for example and never liked it. Additionally I don't want extra wear on the inside of the tires.

Anyone with this experience please advise. Thanks in advance, Thomas
