    I've already lowered the center of gravity by moving alot of roof weight to the floor, I think shifting even more weight would make the roof/floor weight unrealistic.
    It's using the ETK 19 inchers, so 255s.

    There is not a single beta tester currently :p

    no, it's a TRUE SUV. the originals are the suburban, explorer, blazer, etc, and they were all body-on-frame. the new crap now are CROSSOVERS

    I like the overall design of it, my only thing that i say would need to be improved is make some of the lines "harder" if you get what i mean, most notably the rear fender line. The line isn't very distinct and washes the reflection. Very small and fickle detail which can be covered up with less reflective paint but just trying to help. Besides that, it's awesome!!

    The front bumper of this car reminds me of a benefactor Serrano

    You guys should try implementing adaptive suspension via the slow/fast damping and rebound settings used by the off road struts. I've been experimenting with it on the nornal front suspension of the D series

    Well, I can speak for him.
    If you worked with a WIP vehicle, and fixing bugs, and is not an inexperienced dude that just wants to have it right now then you are perfect. And I am not a beta tester, and people will say the same if they are.

    In the first place the thing is that it's not even developed enough to be "beta tested" in any way. Since all parts are still mirrored so I can edit them easily it's still pure crap in crashing, all light's don't have corrected housings nor do they work correctly, there are holes in the mesh, parts aren't smoothly put together, the jbeam isn't finished, the brakepads spin with the wheels for some reason - and I know about those bugs. I'm still designing, not bug fixing.

    I still wonder why people ask all the time to become betatesters with this mod, it didn't occurred on my other mods threads...

    For me I have found it is best to be far enough along in a mod to release a beta before you actually say anything otherwise there's always someone asking to "help".

    Yeah, I just like to get suggestions and to talk about the things with the community, people often have great ideas I don't have, it's fun and getting better for everyone:).

    That's good, I didn't think of that, but i can usually change things after the release. I guess with your whole vehicle mods it would be more difficult to do so.

    How in the word do you manage to make it so the rims and the brake pads spin together? Lol

    Also some other ideas I've been thinking of are larger staggered rims ei 21 inch, 295 up front 315 in the back. A 60 or 65 rear torque split would be a good idea as well as an electronic AWD controlled by the stability control, even in it's off setting, just like a real modern sporty crossover

    Necro-quoting a bit, but hopefully this will serve as a lesson for you to not make rude assumptions on an international forum.
