    they do that because the fins are further apart and you will blow less boots. i would also like to see if anyone else is going with them

    My Dad's Boxster has blow 4 boots in the last 6 year's that we've had it so I don't know how much better it would be on a truck off road.

    My Dad's Porsche, I wish I had the money for one, may as well be a jet plane fast as it is.
