Default Getting an alignment done tomorrow, thinking about going 0 toe F/R....

It's a spirited driven street car w/ the occasional track day. I don't care about a little straight line wandering, but would that be too extreme for highway trips?

Default My Miata is toed out. Great turn-in, but it wanders on uneven pavement.

I'm happy with it.

Default I have that along with as much negative camber as possible (attained -1.3)

all-around as well. Drives fine. Ver neutral handling.


You may even want to go toe out a bit for turn-in response.


I'll try that next time.

Default I run 0 toe all around and asked that it was on the positive side if not exactly at 0.

great for track days, but does wonder on the highway. I got used to it.

once this is a secondary car, I want more toe out especially up front
