Biggest shortcoming of stock car is near-zero front camber. This can be remedied to some degree with camber bolts.

For street car, spirited driving, I say get camber bolts and install for max negative front camber, and zero toe all around.

Done.
I tend to advise against fully zero toe but rather a slight toe in or out depending on driving style and preference. I have slight toe in at all 4 corners but may opt for some toe out in front after some experimentation.

The reason for this is that quite often a car with zero toe all around will be less stable or have a tendency to wander while travelling down the road (sometimes felt as tram-lining). If the wheels are fighting each other slightly (either in or out) it tends to have a stabilizing effect (toe-in more so). Depending on your tires, local roads composition, personal preferences, position of earth relative to the sun, etc. you may not have the same experience so it may not matter but just my $.02
