I've heard of rubbing issues when people put Zip Zap wheels up front. Some say it rubs the Chassis??? Is this true???

Chassis Rub
Hey Speed,
I tried the ZZ fronts on Bits and yes there is chassis rub.
Check this link for a solution to the problem.

Doesn't the taller wheel make the center of gravity higher causing more flips?

I did the Zip Zap mod on LXX juat an hour or so ago. It looked coll, but add the LXX chasis to the rubbing list. Every time I turned the tires would rub in the rear.
I'm going to try a Panther tomorrow and see if it rubs.
