In a lowered car, the touch of toe out will not take more than 10 or 15% out of the tire life. In exchange for that, your steering will have a much improved on center feel. The lightness or numbness you read about from forum members goes away with this small adjustment The factory spec is I believe .15 in. the total difference is 2/10s of a degree, but the st erring feel is a HUGE gain. Try it at your next alignment. If you don't like it change it back on the next alignment. My guess is you'll never change it back.
