Hi,

There is no toe-in on the b4 arms.
(Or all the b4 arms are the same.)

The difference in the B4 arms are the material and how much they flex.

The geometry is the same.

That would be your font caster angle (achieved via the uprights), not wishbones and that will be on the front of the car and not the rear.

The rear has toe in (via differnt rear hub carriers) usually of 0.5 or 1.0 degree. Depending on what B4 you have (B4 or B4.1), kick up (anti squat) on the mounts of the rears arms also, but as Mick has said, no toe in on the wishbones themselves

Yep,

20/25/30 is the caster at the front.

Darren has listed the options for the rear toe-in.
