the reason most cars handle worse is because you mess with the suspension geometry
The location of the geometric roll center is solely dictated by the suspension geometry. The SAE definition of the force based roll center is "The point in the transverse vertical plane through any pair of wheel centers at which lateral forces may be applied to the sprung mass without producing suspension roll".
its old news most people that lower their cars dont careLast edited by wolfgangstbd; 08-30-2009, 11:29 AM.
