Scrub Radius

Anyone know what the stock scrub radius is on the MCS's?

Does a 45mm offset wheel push it from negative to positive?

Same outer diameter tire. Thanks.

Yes, it will be less negative, dunno by how much. But, with a MacPhearson strut, if you dial in more negative camber, the scrub radius becomes more negative; the SAI will intersect the tire's centerline a little higher and therfore meet the ground a bit farther out from the wheel's center line. You don't want zero scrub radius, however.
