- I'm no math wiz, but assuming the steering instantly were to change from zero to 1/8" and there would be no scrubbing, I get about 7.8" Wilko San Diego

- Here's my entry: front of tire moves 1/8 inch left, so we have a triangle about 13.5" (the tire's radius) on two sides and 1/8" on the third side. arc tan of .125/13.5 is 0.53 degrees. if the diamete

- Here are my calculations without any knowledge of 'arc tangents', etc. : Diameter of tire = 24" Radius = 12" 1/8" or .125" at 12" Circumference = Pi d 3.141259 times 24" = 75.39816" 75.39816 divided

- I'm no mathemetician either, but, it seems to me that if a point on the front of the tire exactly 90 deg from a point on the bottom of the tire is 1/8 in to the side of the point on the bottom, when
