      I stretch my r-comps to stiffen the side walls up a bit.

                  Mostly cosmetic. To fit wider wheels and be low. The slanted sidewall makes it possible to clear the fender...or at least close to it

                      Thanks! Yea that's what I figured it was for - to help clear the fender. Does it affect the driving in any way? Pros and cons?
