What's better toe in or toe out on wheel alignments?

There's tons of variables, camber, caster, tires, tire tracking or drift. However, what's better to run a little toe in or toe out. My car had a quarter degree of toe out on each wheel and pulled to the right. I switched tires and now it pulls to the left. I had an alignment, they put toe at 0 for each wheel and stills pull to the left. My camber and caster is dead on they said. I'm wondering if I can tweek it a little so it doesn't go left. I have no issue with tires wearing uneven.

If you want it to track straight more easily, then toe it in a little. Zero or toe out makes it turn quicker but also makes it wander with the slightest imperfections in the road. Also, check your tire pressures.
