Whichever setting works best for the tyres you are using, the pressure they are at, the spring and damper settings you are using, the toe setting, and having taken temperature readings across the tread after geting them hot.

All of the above will influence the temperature of the tyre footprint in some way and the aim is to use the width of the footprint equally.

You could try the above approach, or you could stick a degree neg. on it as a starting point, take it for a blat, jump out and quickly point one of these at it.

Camber to rear 0.5 to 1mm static negative, definitely no toe-out ever, 1 to 3mm toe-in if required.

Mine's -3 at the front, -1,5 at the back. Probably a bit extreme for road use, but the balance is spot on like that for my car. (indy + Pinto)
