Around 1.5mm toe in at the wheel rim is a good starting point.

Hi 40inches
I have trawled the net looking for advice on this, I tried contacting MK a number of times but no answer.
The common denominator of all the info found seems to be 0 neutral toe, I am open to comment and I take on board 1.5 I may try both and see what
affect it has
Cheers

I initially ran 0 toe on mine but after a couple of track sessions i changed to -15min toe in just to take the edge off it and its a lot more stable
at speed now.

You'll get various answers but really it will all boil down to "a little bit of toe in" ~1mm/10mins just as long as its not toe out
or loads and loads of toe in.

Doctor Derek,
Why not toe out? I run mine half a degree out and it definitely helps turn-in. Run with a bit of tow in on the rears to help stability if it feels
wayward.

Was just going to say the same thing... nowt wrong with a bit of toe out up front, makes the front end nice and lively (as it should be on a
performance car!).

0 to 0.25 degrees toe-in across the axle ---- easy enough to get right with a drive over Trakrite.

+1 for Trakrite. They work really well.
