Re : handling like - "badly" :-)
At the moment the ride is harsh. Understabdable given the tyres. As above I don't yet know what torsion bars are in but yes it has green shockies.
Directional stability is the problem. The car is skittish and one cannot lose concentration for a moment, just around town. I expect that most of this is because it needs a wheel align job but my original concern above was about the scrub radius. The camber and castor can be adjusted easy but the widening forces the scrub radius to be incorrect. The contradiction in this is that I see spacers for sale promoting better handling and I see respondants to my query all of the opinion that the widening is not a problem but yet I know the scrub radius has been compromised.
I don't wish to race the car so am not concerned about the last nth of tractability. I just want a drive not not requiring absolute attention to keep on the road.
Can anyone talk to this scrub radius problem ?
Does anyone have a view on the fact that the widening causes much greater loading on the wheel bearings and axles.
Does anyone know why the 911 and 930 front struts have a different part number ? I note the wheel bearings are the same.
As soon as I can I will check the torsion and anti roll bars and let you know about these.
Keep it coming guys. I am gratified by the response.
Thanks,
Mike.
