I've read in several books, and heard from several go-fast drivers 
that a wider track in the front reduces understeer/increases oversteer.
(Come to think of it, Mas Kobayashi at Panasport said it too.)
To that extent, those "track equalizing" offsets that some people 
are pushing with their wheel sets compromise to some extent whatever 
performance advantage they provide with their wider wheel widths.
