What's everyone running for their toe settings? I've search the forum and it seems to vary. I do have feathering from my last set of tires. What I've found is +0.04 degrees fronts and +0.08 degrees for rears. Is this ok or does it need to be dialed in more?

There is no ideal tow setting. Front tow helps turn-in or how quickly the car reacts to steering changes. Too much tow and the front end is quick, but the car is unstable straight line at 100 MPH.

Rear tow is generally bad. Too much and the rear wheels steer the car.

BTW post photos of feathered tires in the "feather" thread. I would like to see them.

For a pure street car I would prefer slight toe-in to neutral (0.000) on the fronts. The rear the same.......but that is just me. My car has about .04-.06 toe-out in the front and .04 toe-in on the rear, but I don't drive it on the street much. The toe-out in the front with wide (285+) tires isn't all that fun on the street.

I run zero toe for minimal tire wear, reduced straight line friction, and better fuel economy. It's not a night and day difference, but it adds up for a year. I do notice a very very slight increase in fuel economy after setting my toe in up front. I was unable to get zero toe in the rear, so I set it to minimal like 1/32"

I'm currently on a brand new set of Potenza RE760's so I don't have any pics of the old tires. I figure I'm due for an alignment so I want to find a compromise between tire wear and handling.

I see that some prefer 0 (neutral) toe setting. But doesn't that promote feathering on the 350Z?
