Default Alignment Questions

I just got an alignment today on my eg hatch and just want to make sure the toe is set right

Before measurements
Left front toe= -0.35
Right front toe= -0.43

Left rear toe= -0.03
Right rear toe= -0.65

Current measurements
Left front toe= 0.02
Right front toe= 0.00

Left rear toe= 0.13
Right rear toe= 0.10

Also what does steer ahead and thrust angle mean?

Your alignment specs look good. I like to set the front with a little more toe in. The steer ahead is just telling you what direction the car is steered to go. So if the steer ahead is 0.00 then it will be steered directly ahead. The thrust angle is pretty much the same as steer ahead but for the rear wheels which don't turn. Hope this helps.
