Inboard VS Outboard toe adjustment (parts sponsored by 3Racing)

You all know what toe-in and toe-out are about.

Usually the easy way to adjust is to change or adjust the steering linkages. This is being referred to as outboard toe, which changes only the angle of the wheels.

Advanced kit like the 3Racing Xi Sport NU also allows you to adjust inboard toe, which is to change the angle of the suspension arms, by using different mounts to mount the arms. This can in theory change the squating characteristics of the car. This will, however, change the angle of the hingepins in relation to the centerline of the chassis too (in other words, when the hingepins are exactly parallel to the chassis it is a 0* toe).
