Scrub Radius...

Ok, time for some rocket science....

I've been reading up some about scrub radius and it seems that most site agree that RWD cars should have POSITIVE scrub radius whereas FWD cars would have NEGATIVE scrub radius from factory.

But for the Super Bugs, VW went from positive to negative when they changed the suspension from 02 to 03... Why?

In your cars, how is it set up? I've read that positive will cause the car to pull to one side under uneven braking, etc... Negetive will help it some. So, what's good?

Here are some sites I found...

I'd like to know what alignment numbers you guys run.

Thanks.

Sprint.
