Toe out is a bad idea for a street driven car on many levels.

A client of ours killed a set of front tires at -2.2* camber with neutral toe within 10k miles doing street driving.

As someone else mentioned, toe is a major tire killer compared to camber.
Reviving an old thread here, but I'm going through a similar decision.
I track my car once a month and drive very little street miles. I'm thinking of pulling the pins out this week to get the most negative camber up front. This will hopefully give me a little better handling and help reduce the outside tire wear. The max negative camber sounds like an easy job, however, I'm not sure about the toe setting.

Once I pull the pin and go with the max negative camber, should I adjust the toe to what it currently is now (which I'm assuming is 0 or neutral toe)?

Thanks
