yea but not extreme maybe a foot off the ground or somthing like that. im going to swap the tires again and see the difference. the rimb thickness on the stock is about 1/8" the maxxis tires are tripple that. they're exremely strong.

Really? They look like they were overtightened and stressed it or something. In the one pic it almost looks indented.
|
#18

|

really that indentment is from the maxxis's odd shape
