I shouldn't talk about traction because here in N.E.Ohio in the valley the roads never get hot even in the summer the trees cover them so with out a loose suspension you never get traction, My AAR wouldn't go anywhere with the .920 bars in the front, just spin the tires. With .830 bars, pinion snubber, sway bars with hyme joints 90/10, 75/25 was the best of both worlds on cold pavement. I could fly through the corners and out accelerate most from a standing start. If you tried that with your car set up for California you would end up in a ditch, I'm just saying what works for you wont work for me.
