The invention relates to a wheel suspension for motor vehicles, with at least one upper transverse arm and two lower separated transverse arms per wheel, which are each arranged at a defined angle to one another and are articulated to the body of the vehicle and also to a wheel carrier, furthermore with a track rod which acts on the steering lever of the wheel carrier and with a McPherson strut unit which, aligned at a defined angle to the vertical, is coupled to the body of the vehicle and to the forward lower transverse arm via a rubber-metal sleeve bearing. To achieve improved driving comfort of the motor vehicle it is suggested that at least the forward lower transverse arm (12) is arranged such that the coupling point (12c) of the McPherson strut unit (20) on the transverse arm (12) when the wheel is deflected viewed in the transverse direction of the vehicle (30) runs parallel to the longitudinal axis (28) of the McPherson strut unit (20).
