Well then, my biggest concern would be the tyres. Because the wheels are angled the contact patches would be off centre from where I assume they are designed to contact with the road. Would this not lead to the cumulative failure of the ply on one side of the tyre due to repetitive stress on that side (especially if you ignored the advice of Mr Scoble and routinely leant to corner)?
