Tracking Threshold

[ellie]

Hello guru's, I was just wondering what peoples experiences are with tracking (following the road undulations) with different size rims on the front of R32's?

In particular, wether a 9" by 17" rim would cause any tracking on an R32 gtst?

I have 17x7" rims on the front and don't get any tracking what so ever but am curious to now if people find wider (say R33 gtr) rims tend to track and to what degree?

Any info will be most appriciated!

Nothing to do with width, offset is what affects the SAI where the centre of the tyre contact patch aligns.

I thought it was more to do with camber and toe settings than anything?

You can make the right offset tram-line with bad settings, but you can't make the wrong offset track right with ANY settings.

Ok then, My 17x7 rims have an offset of +35. If I put a wheel 17x9 in size with an offset of +30(R33GTR), Will my car track?
