Default Not happy with my AC

i agree. i didnt know what i was getting at the time, but they told me i would like it and they were right. i actually have 27" 589s on itp type 7 rims, offset of course which is whats in my pics. and then i have 28" swamplites on the same rims except its solid black. the handling is ian ncredable difference and i never feel like im gonna tip. id imagine with 25 or 26" tire it would be better but i like the look of the over size!!

That's no reason to not like Cat over that. But that is a notable thing about Cats due to their ride height. Mine is absolutely horrible at high speed. Well- i haven't rolled yet despite riding it faster than I should. But I agree, it feels bad.

Just not it's forte though. In rock crawling I'll fall off my quad before it rolls over. Super stable.

Can't have it all I guess, but set up is going to mitigate that somewhat. If you primarily do high speed trail riding, perhaps Cat isn't the best choice bone stock. So while maybe not the best at that particular characteristic, it does excel in other areas. Others may be better at speed, but few compete with them in rock crawling.
