What is wheel rate

by Racing Aspirations on July 20, 2023

The wheel rate is the coil rate with the added leverage modifying the effective rate at the wheel. It is unlikely that the mounting of your coil springs will result in a 1 to 1 ratio unless you have inboard suspension, so knowing the leverage and calculating the effective wheel rate is very important.

Basic calculations

Traditional calculations use these 3 sums to calculate the suspension leverage.
