I thought they had less camber and were more stable at high speed, and the Gti beam had more camber and turned in sharper?

Nuh uh, VTS beams have more camber and more toe in too i think?

I know that ZX arms anyway have more camber, possibly confusing it with the toe in on the VTS beam then.

The vts has less toe in meaning it turns in sharper, but is less stable at speed. It also has more camber and obv the thicker tbs Smile
