The Road Master upgrade solves one issue related to roll-over, control. The tire issue is actually made worse!! If you give a driver, professional or otherwise more confidence speed will increase. This van applies too much lateral load to tire sidewalls. The left rear (this tire carries 45% of the load.) tire fails causing many of the roll=overs. Evan Parker (the driver of the Utah State van) and I discussed rear axle placements for 2 hours in 1994 and ended up predicting his death!
