      I'd guess 2-3 degrees per g would be in the ballpark. You could do the math with spring rates, sway bar rates, center of gravity location, roll centers, etc, but at the end of the day it's still a calculation that will likely have quite a bit of error. If you really want to know, I think you'd be best off driving in a circle at maximum lateral g's (think skidpad test), have someone take a picture of the back of the vehicle, and then use photo editing software to measure the angle between the vehicle body and the rear axle (hopefully you'll be able to see it under the car). You don't want to measure body angle relative to the ground because then you'd be including tire deflection.
