Rear Toe Conversion Inches to Degrees
Hi:
I was looking for a conversion for rear toe from inches to degrees and found this by running google.
http://forums.bimmerforums.com/forum...d.php?t=928400
For 19" wheels am I correct that 1/8" equates to 20 degrees?
Is this enough for the 997 GT3 rear? My car seems to rotate a little easier than needed for my skill level.
I have my rear bar at full soft and front in the middle.
Thanks.

You need 0.50 degrees total in the back, which is 4mm or 5/32" total toe-in (on 18" wheels). With 19" wheels it is a little more if you use distance to measure toe, depending on where you measure from and the shape of the wheels (long lip, pronounced lip, diameter, etc).
I prefer measurements in degrees or minutes (angle).
0.33 degrees total toe-in in the rear helps rotation for AutoX, but I would avoid such settings for track or street.
