Toe is what really wears tires, so just be smart about it. I run like 1/8" toe in front and rear on my S14, to keep the back in check and because when actually driving, the front suspension is pushed back slightly and gets pretty close to 0 toe, thus saving your tires during daily driving. I also run like 8* caster, 2.5* camber front, about 2* camber in back. This setup is for open track use, and some street driving with 245/40 Kumho MXs. I have perfectly even tire wear after 3 track events, an autoX, and about 5000 miles of street driving, city and highway. For more autoX use, you might want to go with 0 toe in back, but it will definitely be a little more squirrely. Get some toe plates and you can tweak it yourself to see what suits your driving style best.
