What is the impact of toe-in size on handling?
1 Answers
Excessive toe-in can cause excessive wear on the inner edges of the front tires and make the steering wheel heavier to turn. On the other hand, insufficient toe-in can lead to excessive wear on the outer edges of the front tires and prevent the steering from automatically returning to center. Below is an introduction to toe-in: 1. Definition of toe-in: Front wheel toe-in refers to the condition where the front edges of the two front wheels are closer together than the rear edges. The difference in distance is called the toe-in value. Viewed from above the car, the two front wheels form a "V" shape pointing upwards. Toe-in can also refer to the angle between the front wheel plane and the direction of the car's movement, in which case it is called the toe-in angle. 2. Precautions for adjusting toe-in: Measure the distance between the centers of the front wheels at the middle, then measure the distance between the rear edges of the front wheels. The difference between these two measurements is the toe-in value. Correction is needed when the toe-in value exceeds 0-12mm.
