So assume the 60mm rims with 1 mm difference front to rear is 1 degree. Then, by extrapolation, we use the difference between 34.9mm (for 1/12th) and 60 mm which would result in a little more than 0.5 mm difference front to rear to achieve a 1 degree of toe (in or out). Right?
yes pretty much. it might be easier to state it like:
the difference front to rear for 1 degree is the diameter/57.3

so for 1/12 its just 35mm/57.3 or 0.6mm and for wgt 46/57.3 or 0.8mm
