no its not about the dampening, i know there cheap shocks but better then stock u kno. but my problem is something is letting my differential swing side to side to the point where it rubs a bit on the inner wheel well on cornering. there is no way this can be caused do to shocks, its either that big metel that holds the panhard bar is cracked or loose or something else, im not sure i have to get into that

I think if you're gonna rag on a tire based on price and or name and have never tried it, your opinion has to be taken with a grain of salt.
