In lame man terms....
Sag is what happens when you hinge those heavy ___ tC doors in an improper location. Hinging it on a body frame can cause the frame to sag... see gravity + Enertia on solids such as metal. (Friction = heat. Not a measurable heat by touch or view, but on a molecular scale.)The molecules will endure friction in varying degrees, more friction (driving, turning, speedbumps, gravel, pot holds, bumps, a penny) will cause more molecule displacement. (they will move) Displacement leads to eventual sag. fixing a "sag" will lessen the tenacity of the frame it's attached to.
therefore, RUINING your car.
This is a mod for Show cars that see very little road.
The vehicles that come from the factory with gull wings, swing ups, etc are engineered to avoid sag.
hope this helps.

There's writing on the right rear tire. I checked Volk, G-Games, Rays...didn't see them on any of their sites.
*Edit*
They look like these....
The only difference, no writing on the spoke of the one on Axis' Website.
