As athol carr said - the manuala specifies 1/8 - 1/4"
A little toe in just helps keep the wheels straight while driving, even (or especially) at slow speeds.
If you're in the dirt, you're constantly correcting anyways, but if you're driving on a road it does help. One of those things you don't NEED, but why not just do it right.
By the way - that measurement is comparing the rear of the rim's edge (between left and right wheels) to the front edge of the rims (left and right). So it's very slight - best to measure. If you're doing it by eye, you're probably way off.
Going more than 1/4" would cause excessive tire wear... but in reality, you'd either have to do a LOT of road driving, or have a LOT of extra toe in for it to be a real problem.
