As you think of it, "toe" is simply 'twisting' the tire contact patch in relation to the roll direction. It simply scrubs the tire against the road. "perfect" is zero.

But zero may give you other issues, plus sometimes under load the suspension alters. So you need SOME toe.

In ALL my road cars I set toe to the absolute minimum allowed by the mfg.
