caster angle

In Turkish, "kaster açısı". The forward or backward tilt of the steering axis as viewed from the side. If the point of load is ahead of the point of contact, the caster angle is positive.

The caster angle tends to keep wheels in a straight line. Proper caster adjustment improves both tire wear and fuel economy.
