Alignment Specs for Street/Highway/Spirited Driving??

I'm gonna get my car aligned on thursday, with new front tires put on, and i was wondering if there is anything better than the stock alignment specs to get it aligned to that wont destroy tires, but will make the car handle a little better. (dont know if such a thing exists that's still tire friendly)

high speed stability is a must (tracking straight down the highway at high speeds).

just throwin this out there, cause my car is toed out so bad that it ate a pair of Kumho 712's in about 600 miles, and i thought the car handled GREAT... i wonder what it is gonna be like when the alignment is proper.

0 deg Toe defenately. Any toe creates drag and also wears out tires. Maybe a couple deg of negative camber (Top edge of tires more inwards than the bottom edge...)

Aside from that, stock.
