For example, a basic W202 (195/65/15) the front track is 1499 mm & rear 1464 mm, making the front wider by 35 mm. Should I aim for increasing the rear track by 35 mm?
The reason for all my questions is that I understand the general guide used for track width to wheelbase length is 0.62. The wheelbase in this case is 2690 mm x 0.62 = 1662 mm track. So, the closer I can get to that figure the better, not that I'll get very close as the difference between 1662 mm and current tracks is massive. Just thinking ever little helps, even if only an extra 35mm on the rear????
