Toe bolts or no

So I have the full spc front and rear camber kit. I had the toe bolts but I sold them because I was able to get in spec without them in swifts. What a dummy. Now I'm on coils and I got my alignment today. Front is fine but the rear is at -1.5 and -1.3. He said if he moved them anymore my toe moves also. So my question is will I notice accelerated wear? And if so how fast? I just ordered some as3+. But now I'm on the fence about getting these toe bolts again.

You'll be fine w/ that spec sheet. If you decide to go lower on your coilovers then I'd reevaluate.
I forget, are you running square or staggered? If you can do a full 4 wheel rotation on a non-directional square setup you'll be even better off.

I'm running staggered coupe wheels. 245/275 combo. The guy that did it said I would be fine also. He said that the toe has more affect on tire wear them camber. But thanks for the advice. I actually had him raise it about 1/4". I wil never go lower then Where im at now

Yeah, toe will chew up tires pretty quick since the tire is actually constantly having to fight its' natural rotation when toe is excessive. Luckily your toe is currently good front & back, and as long as you don't hit a jarring pothole or something similar you should be good for the future. And if your tires are non directional or assymetric so you can at least rotate side to side that will help somewhat too.
