What do adjustable A-arms do to toe?
I just put a set of Ichiba A-arms on my Z last week and dialed in all the negative camber the arms could give me. I have been killing the outside edges of my tires when autocrossing. (Adding air pressure was wearing the center of the tires.)
I am going to use a pyrometer to set my air pressure and camber, but I was wondering how much the a-arm adjustments are going to change my toe.
*Update*
I just went out to my "testing area" and checked the tire temps. I only got the fronts up to 130 degrees, but every part of the tire was the same temp +/-1 degree. And that was at 38 psi.
Still wondering about toe though.

Looking at the geometry, it seems that moving the top in, (neg camber) would cause some toe in while moving the top out, (pos camber) would cause toe out.
