Here are the before and after numbers... It does not look nearly as bad as you would think based on the wear. I guess ill know more end of next week..

But as pointed out above, you can get the toe changed to essentially 0, just need to be careful about 0.
No noticeable difference on driving including the occasional late night 160 mph sprints

I too dropped my toe from 30 to 24 last year and have even wear.

This is PFL, so there's an angle in decimal degrees that you then add hexagesimal degrees. My recollection was wrong.
Even so, the total toe looks to be over 6 degrees, not like above. Unless that angle means something else.
