Default street/track alignment suggestions?

I'm looking for advice from folks who have intentionally deviated from stock alignment settings. Note, I'm only looking for F&R toe settings, as that's the only thing adjustable on my car.
My suspension: Stasis Tracksport 500/600 @ ~25.75" F&R
Alignment goals: Better/quicker turn-in; preserve decent highway tracking; don't shred my tires

I'm thinking about:
F: 0 toe
R: ~1/8" total toe in

Any BTDTs?

Default You're on the right track.

I have no knowledge of the adjustability of the S4's suspension... since I told myself it wasn't going to be the track car from day one.

However, a little toe in the rear is a nice way to be able to power out of corners a little earlier. If you're going to be running a serious tire on the car, I would suggest a little static toe in on the front so the car doesn't dart around under braking.
