This is following on from the 10s and miglias thread, but i know people say 13x7s are dreadful for torque steer but are 10x7 any better? Just wanting to know people's experience, as these rim would be for the road! |

Yes, becasue the sidewalls would flex, and tyres would be narrower. It all depends on the offset though. My experiance is that 3" to each side is fine. On 13th Jul, 2012 Ben H said:

With increased offet your moving the centrline of the wheel further out beond the hub and thus increasing the leverage the road has against you, regardless of diameter. On 7th Nov, 2008 Nic said:

only using the KAD 6 pots , close but no closer than the rest, seing as the inner rims have little dimentional difference.

There is a separate mount that bolts thru OE calliper mounts then the 6pot bolt down thru them with different thickness spacers, so the callipers can fit on any size disc from 7.5 - 8.4
