A question about when the front arms are angled backwards. Or described in another way: the Pivot pins are spread more in the front than in the back, on the inside of the front arms. Does it have a name? What does it do? Why does it do that? Thanks ![]() |

It's called inboard toe out, it Can give more turn in |

Thanks beale ![]() I like the name. My feeling has been a more precise steering. But the wheels have the same angles. Why does it have an effect? |

Also known as arm sweep, increases turn-in. |
