Alignment or Suspension Related at 100MPH?

In relation to the above info. Setting zero toe will allow the front tires to gain more toe out under compression in the front (braking/turning/bump). In addition to this, Adding toe-in on the rear (only) will actually increase the wandering on the front axle as it changes the pivoting angle slightly. As mentioned above, its best to set a bit of toe in on both axles. If you set zero toe front, you will actually get better high speed straight line stability with a bit of toe out in the rear. Under rear compression the car is set to toe in (acceleration/turn/bump). During cruising and hard braking however it may fish tail a bit more.

To mitigate both instances, it's best you get rid of the rubber lca bushings for something a bit stiffer.
