What values are these? Units and for what? 

It's evident that it is urgent, we can make that out from your poorly written post.

As said above, please use proper English to describe your problem and pose a specific question. if your question is something along the lines of "is 5.2" of droop travel acceptable?" our answer will be "that is for your team to determine based on your teams set goals and the rest of your teams vehicle design". so if you are asking these opinionated questions and not something specific, please don't.

Cheers.

P.S. saying it is urgent, does not mean a poorly constructed post with no specific question will be answered urgently.

ok i got it in some sense that it basically will be us to set the targets

but one basic dbt:

means any ills as such?

nd one qn 
does setting up initiall toe out in wheels reduce toe in during opn?

READ why your car needs or does not need toe. That should answer your first two questions. 

If you set a certain toe, why on earth would it change in the open?

Can you, in the future, please use proper english and type full words with correct spellings?
