Which one do you like more?
Please, ignore the tire life issue.
For the records, I ran 0.15° at each side in my Boxster and didn't like it because the car won't rotate. Changed it back to 0.05° and my alingment shop did it right at the passenger side and wrong at the drivers side (0.10°), but the car felt better.

NJ - Mine is set up with 5' of toe per side in front and 17' toe per side in back. It feels really good.
On the boxster the lack of negative camber in front was the most common cause of understeer and from the factory the car was set up to understeer a lot - liability issues I suspect. "I spun, it's Porsche's fault!".
My Boxster S had 1/16 inch of tone in at the front with neg 2 camber all around. I had 3/32nds total toe in back and it turned in very swiftly.
As usual YMMV
