"I loved the relatively low center of gravity (with wider tires)" Hi "Griffin" A low Centre of Gravity is certainly a "good thing" with respect to the roll-over risk, but wider tires will not lower the Cof G. Wider tires *will* widen the "track" of the vehicle and this too is a "good thing" w.r.to the roll over risk. It's all about keeping the CofG within the base, in this case the track, of the vehicle as it tilts, and of course both a low Cof G and a wide track will help to achieve this. Andy I.
