For a 18" wheel the Rear toe should be a "minimum" of 0.043, "maximum" of 0.106. The ideal setting is 0.075. My shop set my rear toe to 0.08.

this same question has been asked and answered probably 30 times in the last 2 weeks
The short answer is...it depends. Every car comes from the factory with different settings, and where the car starts out determines where it ends up as far as alignment. Some will be able to get back to factory specs after springs, even with a 1 inch or 1.2 drop, some cars will be completely out of spec even with a 1/2 inch drop. The best thing a camber/toe kit does is, at the very least, let you make the figures perfectly even from side to side, ensuring consistent handling during left and right turns, and ensuring good tire wear. When you lower the car, it's always advisable to at least purchase a rear camber/toe kit

I ordered me an adjustable A arm and rear camber/toe kit. I'm not very happy with the numbers and since I put on my work wheels I can clearly see how the camber is all jacked up. Going to install it next week as soon as it gets here!

UPDATE
So after a month I decided to have my alignment done again. Here are the numbers.
Cambers
-1.8L and -2.0R (Front)
-2.1L and -2.1R (Rear)
Toes
0.05's on front and back
I have an Adjustable A arm and camber/toe kit but thinking about not installing them since I'm on the borderline. What do you guys think. I'm thinking about just getting the MD spacers + MREV2
