most alignment shops will just set your alignment to spec as specificied in a FSM. I doubt they will let you specify your own settings. But if they do...
If you auto-x a lot, you might want a little toe out up front, like 1/16", or 1/32", otherwise 0 or 1/16 toe-in is probably about standard. You problaby want 0 in the rear. Its nice to have camber caster plates up front so you can run more negative camber when you do spirited driving, or auto-x's, track sessions etc....for Auto-x you can go -2.5 degrees no problem, although on the street that will wear your tires VERY unevenly.
