Staggered or non-stagger ?!
I have been reading around the suspension difference between the BRZ and the FRS. The BRZ seemed to have more neutral steer while running 215 all around. So i am guessing running staggered setup the car will have more under steer ? Will non-stagger be any better for grip? Just trying to get some idea to setup the car at the track. Please post your thoughts !

I think I would have done a simple search on the term stagger:

MR and RR cars are really the only ones that you want staggered. FR and awd generally want equal all around. Im sure there are exceptions, but this is a general statement.

This car doesn't have much torque, I really don't see the benefit on stagger setup. Maybe just slight difference might be good

In my experience, FR cars do well enough without staggered setups to require anything otherwise. Plus, being able to rotate tires is nice.

If you want to go fast dont stagger. If your going for stance then a stagger setup would look better I guess.
In 1996 BMW switched to a stagger setup on there M3 cars to add understeer for safety reasons Last edited by 86knecht; 04-29-2012 at 05:50 PM. |
