Rear alignment shim question

Just finished installing trailing arm bushings and new shims. Does anyone know the effect on toe-in of moving 1/8 inch shim from outside the trailing arm to the inside? Real curious to find out how changing to less shims on one side or the other changes the rear toe-in. Going to alignment shop Monday and knowing the effects of different shim thickness may give us some clue as to how much the first shim change should be in our efforts to get my rear aligned correctly. It was toed out on the right almost 3/4 before the new parts were installed.
 
I would say, on the rear toe out, oversteer. Toe in the opposite?
