    To add sidebite to the right rear you would usually pull the rr in towards the car.

    Hard to cook a tire with no weight on it.

    What tires are you guys on that are saying more offset is taking away sidebite? If that's the case, I would think you are possibly overloading your RR.

    overall tighter everywhere. Way better side bite. we did it that way on banked tires and flat tracks both big and small. IMCA tires.

    I thought the topic was less offset, not more.

    Several have posted that less offset made their car tighter. So explain how less weight on RR makes a car tighter???

    It adds more left rear less weight to right rear.Running more offset can loosen off corner because to much weight on right rear

    Some have posted that it made entry tighter. That's whats hard to understand when the RR will be less loaded.

    Years ago we use to add wheel spacer to right front and soften the rf spring for entry we did not like to add more offset to right rear but we also ran ump tires. Some cars may transfer more weight then some I always ran a 2 off on right rear
