pretty much, i never hear/feel it rub but there is some rubber being deposited on the inside of the rolled fender lip. the car tilts pretty hard with no sway bars around corners so i think that's when it tags the tires, thankfully the fenders are rolled so it doesn't seem to really be hurting the tires.
ya, only running 1 in the driver side, probably going to put one in the passenger side (even though i don't have a rubbing issue on that side). can't stack more than 1 per side, won't have enough lip on for the spring.
for sure, couldn't hurt to give it a try. did you say that they leaked or no?
Actually, I've never aired them up. I'd assume they do, but you can put a hose on it and set it before the pass, maybe even put a guage on it so you can see where it is when you start your pass.

Deville we run pretty close to the same times. Def very good runs & the car moves out. I think Suspension is where I would focus next. You need to get those 60fts down & you shuold hit some 6.90s
I was watching the UStream last night when you ran... car looked like it was pulling hard.
what kind of 60's were you cutting.. I was running 1.90-2.00 and 7.4X (I don't remember) at 94 MPH I wish I could get some 1.60's 60s because that would make a HUGE diff for me
every pass was the same, low 7.2's at 96-97mph, mid 1.6x 60' foots. was running a tad bit fat on the big end the first pass or two, took out fuel and gain a little on the mph but couldn't go any faster then a 7.20. the car is so easy to drive it really makes it a fairly boring experience, needs more powa! car has cut a 1.5x 60' before but i never actual "dead hooks", it always spins just a bit coming out of the hole and rolls over onto the passenger tire hard. need to bite the bullet on a anti-roll bar and pick up some 243 heads, pretty sure that'd plant me safely into the 6's. i think that is what i am going to do this winter. if i can find the scratch i'll probably get mike to build me a new converter and spray a 150 shot on top.
