car suspension track increase
Hi, I'm considering going wide arch and widening my track and tyre width front and rear in future. However is it automatic that grip and traction will be improved if everything else stays equal, or are there some common downsides to this school of thought?

Have a good read of this, and don't forget about steering offset when choosing wider wheels. |
