Do following exercise.
Park parallel to a road with slow traffic.
Observe cars coming from behind you as they transition from rear view mirror to side mirror to your peripheral vision.
Make your own decision on what is right or not (it is your safety anyway).
I prefer to have two small blind spots that can't fit a cyclist in either of them than one larger that can fit a small car.

And I'd rather have only one small blind spot, while being better able to judge where things in my side mirror are relative to my car. And this wouldn't require a big change to the mirror, only a quite small one, if that diagram is accurate. Also, the field of view shouldn't be so narrow that a 4 degree tilt makes a blind spot too big (my head moves more than that all the time!).
