FWIW I'm running 255 fronts 325 rear aggressive street only, no track. All OE suspension other than front sway bar and rear adjustable camber/toe bars. ZERO understeer and the tires won't unevenly wear as bad.

Caster 5*
Front camber (not adjustable) -1.02*, -1.23*
Front toe 0.09*

Rear camber -1.04*
Rear toe .018*

Toe in inches is the old way. The way I was taught doing alignments many years ago. Also toe in inches is affected by size diameter. Where in degrees is off of vehicle center line. Tire diameter won't affect it.

So 1/16" toe in with a 27" tire is .1326288 deg total toe. Or .0663144 deg for one wheel.

For the rear toe. A lot of the track rats here run close to zero toe on the rear. Helps the car rotate.

255 front, 325 rear, and no understeer? You really haven't pushed all that hard.
