Turns out that I agree, so I can give you my input. :-) Last night, for the purpose of finding the roll center of the front suspension, I measured all the pickup points and pivot points on the front suspension. Turns out I was able to get the scrub radius from these measurements. I got a value of -20 mm for the OEM wheels. I'll post the drawing in a day or so. Anyhow, it seems that the scrub radius is indeed negative. I'm kinda curious why Subaru did this.
