Makes the frame sit too low.....hits the ground when pushed hard into g-outs.
They say it steers better with 21's but I can't tell a difference.

thanks jeff.. my z is hard to turn and my friend had em on his ex and it turned to easy.. he put 22's on and a steering damper and it made it much tighter, proably the damper that did it

Some will disagree but thats what I found a long time ago when I was on a Honda. I've never tried them on the ATK/Dale

What exactley is a G-out? I've heard the term tossed around but never caught the concept of it:confused:

Its usually a low spot in the ground that causes your suspension to compress quickly under g-force loads.
