I'll second that.

A little bit of rear toe-out goes a long, long way and can make the car quite scary to drive. I wouldn't recommend it at all for a strictly street-driven car, there is no need for it. And I'd add the caveat to any of this that if you don't know what you're doing or why you're doing it, DON'T do it.

while my car is within spec it is still slightly toe-out (1/8" total, 1/16" each side) and just as loren stated, if you dont' know what you're doing, dont' do it. i personally LOVE the way my car handles, but i've also taken the risk into my own hands by doing this modification. i apologize for stating it above like it was a common practice
