Scrub radius, how important?

[pigeondave]

Hi,

I'm looking at changing my wheels and hubs on my kit car. The new ally hubs are 10mm wider than standard heavy steel ones.
As I am in a position to slightly change the scrub radius with the wheel off set, what should I be looking at. The problem is if I move the wheels too far in they might catch the side pod or chassis.

OR

Is the scrub radius fairly irrelevant to a road car(that I do tour in) with occasional track use.

Anyone?

Good idea I never thought of that.
Would 10mm make a massive difference?

Thanks for the above. Its more or less what I was looking for. I suppose it comes down to a personal feel too as long as its kept on the heavier side of things.

It does appear that as you say there are many ways of skinning this cat.
The more I read, the more variables there are and the more they affect each other.
