Abstract An independent wheel suspension for motor vehicles, with the wheel suspension including a wheel carrier supported relative to a vehicle body by guide elements which determine an upper and lower guide point for the wheel carrier with respect to lateral forces. At least one of the guide points is elastically movable in a transverse direction relative to the vehicle body, with the guide points together fixing a vertical first pivot axis for the wheel carrier. The carrier furthermore is supported by a transversely extending track rod offset laterally, as seen in a side view of the wheel suspension. Under the influence of lateral forces, the upper guide point is displacable outwards relative to the lower guide point and a second pivot axis, determined by the lower guide point and the articulation point of the track rod on the wheel carrier extends, in a side view, obliquely forwardly and upwardly, with respect to the normal driving direction of the vehicle, so as to enable an adjustment of the wheel suspension in a toe-in direction. The second pivot axis may also extend, in a side view, upwardly and obliquely rearwardly, with respect to the normal driving direction of the vehicle, for enabling an adjustment of the wheel suspension in a toe-out direction.
