Abstract
A vehicle wheel suspension for steerable drive wheels has a wheel carrier with a tie rod to steer a wheel. A strut assembly is present which is coupled with a mounting member. A lower arm, which has two legs, each leg having an end to be coupled with the chassis, includes one of the legs coupled to the mounting member. Another end of the lower arm is coupled with the wheel carrier. An upper arm, which has two legs, each leg having an end coupled with the mounting member, includes one of its ends coupled with the wheel carrier. The wheel suspension improves tire wear and handling of the vehicle.
