The rolling menu that explains the toe angle settings,says "when u give rear wheels toe out".This means that at the rear wheel it goes + or - ? And when u give the rear out,u have to give the front in,and vice versa?
 
Negitive toe, (front of the tires pointing in) in the rear places more demand on the rear tires. This deflects the "traction envelope", making it oblong and CAUSES THE REAR TIRES TO BREAK TRACTION SOONER". Therefore making the car to feel as if the toe, facing in is facing out. This toe in will keep the rear end in check around long sweepers, but in the slow speed hairpins the rear tires will let go easier, (depending on gearing and vehicle power).

I hope this theory will help clear things up for some of my fellow GT4 players.
 
Yeah that's propably the easiest way to say it, but may I ask why did you make an own thread for this? You also could've just posted this to the thread where the guys were asking for help with this. But anyway, you are the first person who said it clearly, even so that i understand it.

Because I was in a hurry and couldn't decide which thread to toss it in. I meant to put it up in the setting tread too.
