How To Get Way More Steering Angle The Easy Way

This great guide from ChrisFix details how to reduce the turning circle of your car, which - depending on your steering setup - can be ridiculously simple

Having a car with a massive turning circle can be an utter pain. Most of us probably just accept a lack of steering angle as an unavoidable quirk of a car, but - depending on the steering setup - it can be stupidly easy to get a little more angle.

As detailed by ChrisFix, it’s sometimes as simple as removing a pair of steering rack limiters. They’re essentially little plastic spacers that restrict steering angle, although taking them out could give clearance issues.

There are simple solutions for that though - you can either change to a different wheel with more offset, trim down the existing spacers/make your own to give more angle but not so much that the tyres catch anything, or install wheel spacers.

The more you know…

Note regarding MOT inspection and wheel spacers: check your local regulations to see if your car’s wheels can extend beyond the wheel arches (outside the body of the car). And counter that properly.
