  18. 2nd Track day - 18" and the torque steer theory

    So two weeks ago, i took the FK8 to the track for the second time. This time with a proper setup. My biggest question was "if the R&T article about that using 18" wheels will harm that geometry of the suspension and have a negative impact on the car balance, specially on generating torque...
