If I want 1 degree of toe I need 7.25 mm variance,

7.25/410*180/3.14 = 1.01

I'm I correct?

Yep, that seems to be right. Keep in mind that if both wheels have 1° relative to the chassis, you have 2° total, which is a lot.

Agreed again Albert,but why introduce more stress on a stressed component.
Purely my own view on something I personally would not do and if needed would sort a solution like adjustable arms/mounting points,as I said my personal preference.
