What is the toe-in value for front wheels?
1 Answers
Front wheel toe-in value should not exceed 8mm, which is ensured by adjusting the length of the tie rod. Modern vehicles tend to have reduced toe-in values. When the front wheel camber is negative, the toe-in also becomes negative, turning into front wheel toe-out. Below is detailed information about front wheel toe-in: 1. Front wheel toe-in can be adjusted by changing the length of the tie rod. During adjustment, the distance difference between the front and rear of the two wheels should meet the specified toe-in value according to the measurement position designated by the vehicle manufacturer. Generally, a toe-in value between 0-12mm is considered normal. 2. Front wheel toe-in refers to the distance difference between the front and rear edges of the front wheels in the lateral direction of the vehicle, or the angle between the vehicle's forward direction and the plane of the front wheels, which is also known as the toe angle. 3. To ensure stable straight-line driving, the steering wheels should have a self-aligning effect. This means that when the steering wheels are accidentally deflected by an external force (such as hitting a stone), they should automatically return to the straight-line driving position immediately after the external force disappears. 4. During wheel installation, the central planes of the two front wheels are not parallel, with the distance between the front edges being smaller than that between the rear edges. The difference between these distances is the front wheel toe-in.
