Interesting topic! I've wondered how the guys with super large dia. wheel/tire combos dealt with this. Anyway, generally you hear street rods guys talking about this. They tend to modify their front suspensions more than other car enthusiasts.
I did find the first article interesting. I thought you needed to shoot for zero offset. But per the article, zero offset would induce "squirm". Odd though that the author didn't state what was the ideal offset to shoot for.
I have read that too much offset positive or negative will cause excessive tire wear and premature wheel bearing failures. But I don't recall what quantifies "too much".
Hopefully Joe, Norm or some of the other knowledgeable folks will know more about this. Sorry I could not help with your question. I would like to know the answer though!
