Re: wheel path diagrams

The radius you are looking for is called: Toe out On Turns:

The formula varies by car length or wheelbase, to be more exact.

See if you can find the : Beeline web site, they should have a nice spec 
sheet there, with an arc drawn through the different wheelbase lengths.

They sent me a hard copy 25 years ago, when I was doing truck frames and 
alignments, and never can find it when I look through my frame manuals.

PS
This is all dependant on the rear axle. being square to the frame center 
lone, which then becomes the front thrust angle.
