Yes it does. Changing the wheel offset alters the spring and damper ratio relative to wheel travel and also alters the scrub radius and required ackerman angle when the front wheels are steered. Changing the track width (through differen offsets) also changes thr amount of weight transfer during cornering, albeit by a rather small amount. The effect on spring/damper and weight transfer is not that noticeable, but the effect on steering feel and feedback is the one I find the most detrimental. I disliked what 12mm spacers in front did to my E92.
