Abstract: A wheel suspension for a motor vehicle, especially a rear wheel suspension in which a double cross-guide member formed of two upper and two lower guide arms is pivotally connected at a wheel carrier and forms an elastokinematic axis of rotation with an ideal wheel steering pole. The latter is located to the rear of the axis of rotation of the wheel--in relation to the driving direction--and outside of the track and effects an adjustment with forces acting on the wheel. In relation to the driving direction F, a forwardly disposed lower guide arm of the wheel suspension is retained at the wheel carrier in a joint in front of the axis of rotation of the wheel. At its end, this guide arm is arranged to the rear of the axis of rotation of the wheel and is supported in the vehicle transverse direction in a yielding control bearing support. The latter is located preferably within a coupling quadrangle formed by the joints of the two lower guide arms.
