In the short term it doesn't seem very sensitive to an 1/8" here or there. > mine is for 0 with the weight off the gear. Four wheel vehicles tend to 'hunt', that is, be a little unstable directionally, with zero toe-in. It does yield a bit better gas mileage though! So, as just a WAG I'd probably try maybe 1/8" on my own plane.
