Feels much more stable due to shifting the centre of gravity

Lightbulb Centre of Gravity ??

Nice looking Truck and wheels.
Unless there is something wrong with my applied Phyisics a suspension lift raises the centre of gravity making it more likely to tip over so widening the track just puts you closer to where you started except for some extra ground clearance ?

But also gives better traction from better articulation.better attack and departure angles.
More sill clearance on rock climbing/descending.
And keeping my comfort

Basically yes but with -38 offsets that puts the track nearly 80mm wider than stock. Add on a bit for the wider tyre so in the region of 120mm o/a wider than stock. CofG has gone up yes but it's not very high in the first place. I don't know exactly the ht of CofG but suggest the net effect will be a little more stable than stock
