I've always stated that as a total of 1/8th" toe in...   check this thought 
out... ( thanks to Dahlgren )

Take a jack stand at each outside corner of the car... tie a string to to 
the back... and then set it so the string is laying on the back tire about 
mid height...   now tie the other end to the front jack stand ( same side .. 
Geez)...  and pull the string tight... with it touching the back of the rear 
tire start to bring the jack stand closer to the front tire... once it just 
touches the front of the back tire it's straight with the tire... Set it 
down.... do the same thing on the other side....

normally your front track is slightly less then your rear... so if you take 
one front tire and measure it exactly even... the other wheel should 
indicate the exact toe in.

Man if you followed that you could be a hero...
