If I got a car from someone else I would always check that first. Having too much toe or not enough toe in the front and/or rear can make a car snap happy or push like a pig. I have my custom settings which I'm used to.

To be safe you want 0 toe front and rear. Having more toe out in the rear can cause tail happy wagging
