Center the steering wheel.

Measure both leading and trailing edge of your wheels so they are the same.

If anything, give yourself a slight toe-in of 1/16" and adjust to feel. Granted, over 30 years of doing this, all my cars have been street cars.

I also have Longacher plates when I want to do it quick and dirty.
I'll try this after I get my steering rack back in the car.
