Moving character cast ray at X degrees

Unity Engine
1

I am trying to continuously cast few rays from a character at 45 degrees, so I can check the immediate surroundings.

I have this in my Update function:

RaycastHit hit;
        Vector3 sensorStartPos = transform.position;
        sensorStartPos.y += 0.05f;

        Quaternion spreadAngle = Quaternion.Euler(0, -45, 0);
        Vector3 newVector = spreadAngle * transform.forward;
       
        Debug.DrawRay(sensorStartPos, newVector);

When the character is spawned, the ray appears to have the correct angle, but when I rotate the character, the ray does not correctly spins with the character:

What am I doing wrong?

Ok, so I managed to do this by replacing this:

Quaternion spreadAngle = Quaternion.Euler(0, -45, 0)

with this:

Quaternion spreadAngle = Quaternion.AngleAxis(45, transform.right);
