Default How important is scrub radius vrs track width?

Hi all. I'm not a suspension guru like some of you so I thought I would ask.. I have always read that less than 2" scrub radius is desired but what about brians protouring vette which has to have a large scrub radius. I am trying to design my setup which will be using c5 front and rear suspension for a vette. I absolutely love the look of the deep dish wheels and would love to do something like the red vette. Where do you draw the line on scrub and or track width? Any input is appreciated!

Both are valuable ... for different reasons. Ideally, we want a wide track width AND zero scrub radius.

If you're in a situation where you have to choose between the two ... Track Width is substantially more important.
