I've been searching the forums on the impacts of positive scrub radius, don't see much data on the impact piece. And, I suspect that may people are running tire/wheel combos without considering scrub radius. So, appreciate any feedback on this: on a non-sas Big Bend: 18x8.5 wheels with +18 offset, and 265 /70 R18 tires. According to wheel-size.com this results in a positive scrub radius (about 1 ¹³⁄₃₂").
I use my bronco for road trips and gravel road driving.
Will that positive scrub radius add wear/tear to the steering components? Reduce traction? i.e. is this a safety issue? I know what scrub radius is, I just need to understand the real-world impact.
Thank you.
