I got new wheels and tires put on today and was forced to remove the quad shock to clear the tires. They are 15x8 Draglites with 5.5" backspacing and 255/60/15 tires. Other than reducing wheelhop, what is the purpose of the quad shock? Will the ride be greatly affected? I have skinnies on the front so the car is not a corner carver anyway.
