I believe my methods to be sound enough to prove my point that there is sufficient travel. My tire was within a 1/2" of touching the frame or upper fender. Regardless of any shock shaft travel vs wheel travel vs motion ratios etc, the tire can physically go no further. There is not a shock out that will create more travel that will allow the tire to go through the fender tub.

Thanks for the thoughts, but with my particular setup, I do not hit the bump stops on back roads or high curbings and have stable predictable management of grip at all times i've been behind the wheel. Im sorry to hear so many of you having issues.
