Hi,

I'm running some external aerodynamic CFD studies on a Formula Student car as part of my thesis, and I want to simulate wheel movement. However, since the wheels are not perpendicular to the ground, they have some camber and toe angles, I cannot rotate them around the y axis, so how would I go about defining an axis aligned with the wheel orientation. I do not know how hard this would be to implement as I am just starting out using OpenFOAM.

regards.
