Jimbo and Mk, why do you want/need 'castor' on the rear?

Castor On the rear is used to allow you to set toe on compression and dial out bump steer

Love this car but I cannot help but think you should maybe look at different wheels. Everything ales is really nice but the replicas spoil it imho.

interesting, id always have expected to treat both symptoms with the position/length of the steering arm alone. Castor on the front is mainly for camber gain in-turn and obviously the rears dont turn, hence the question
Finally finished looking through the whole thread, what a project beefy! Well done for sticking with it, looking awesome so far!

Awesome build , awesome wheels! IMO I reckon either body colour full rims or maybe Gunmetal centres with silver (polished) lip.
