    Read again. And when you respond, try not to be a tool.

    Says the guy that posts up an alignment sheet, says does this look right, when given advice regarding said sheet, responds back with, I used to be an alignment tech and I know what I'm talking about. Got it bud. Refer back to my previous statement, most alignment techs don't have a fucking clue of what they are talking about. ;)

    You misread my question and I clearly don't claim to be an expert. I know a thing or two, but not everything. My question may not have been clear, but it was more about the factory positive camber vs camber on modified vehicle. I don't have a lot of experience with modified alignments.

    Lighten up bud. I know it hurts if someone doesn't just take things at face value, but remember that I don't know you from Adam. It's the internet and for all I know, you may be 14. You may be a 50 year old master mechanic. I asked you to respond and you didn't. I wasn't arguing, but discussing.

    I think you need to take a step back man, my comment wasn't even directed toward you and I honestly don't need to reread your nonsensical post about your anecdotal experience with King performance at the mall.

    The point, which wasn't even directed at you, was that you experience a noticeable difference while offload. So someone coming to a forum and saying their E-Load tires affected ride performance and that they didn't feel much while DDing is a big "no shit" from most people..

    Your post was not directed at me but definitely about me. I'm not a dedicated off-roader. I've made that clear. I bought this suspension with off-roading intentions, but also to serve as a daily driver. Therefore, road manners are important to me, and honestly to most people on this forum over the age of 30 who don't have a dedicated off-road rig. To be honest, the real "no-brainer" here is not how it performs on-road but off. So really, there's probably less to report there. We know how they do off-road.

    As for the E-rated tires, you'd be absolutely flabbergasted to find how many people on this forum say they don't notice a difference with E-tires vs. p rated. As I said, I put myself through college in a tire/alignment shop, so I know a thing or two about tires. I gave the e-rated a try. They're pretty rough, as I thought they'd be. So I'm informing the public of what they can expect.
