Front toe-in is good for straight line stability, neutral toe good for cornering, right.
How about rear toe?
Specs (EK) are (in minutes) 10' (5'-20'), (in mm) 2 (-1/+2) toe-in.

front toe at zero is good for tire wear but slightly toeing out the front improves turn in and is actually worth time on the track. one of my favorite combos is to run the front .04" out on each side and the rear .06 in on each side. i've tried the front and zero and hate it. steering is numb, just that slight amount out helps greatly. also tried the rear at zero, not a fan of that either since you have a back end that feels less stable.

I am also a fan of slight tow out up front and toe in in the rear...rear toe in helps the rear tires to build slip angles in sync with the front and is chiefly the reason this is stable upon turn in...I also believe that rear toe affects high speed straightline stability more than front toe...like a wagging tail.
