Which you can't do without a tuner. If you just dump the clutch and get the tires spining fast it doesn't happen as much. Maybe the 06's have control arm improvements??? Could be you have stiffer springs to compensate for the larger 18" wheel? i know they did do changes for the 18"ers. <br /> </font> </td></tr> </table></td></tr></table> <br /> <br />
