I could not find a good post on this so I'm asking. Who makes the lowest drag wheel pants? I have Van's wheel pants installed and I have a pair of Sam James wheel pants sitting on the floor which I think / maybe are copied from Klaus Wheel pants. SJ claims 3 mph over VAN'S??? Is this voodoo or has anyone tested apples against oranges. Reason asking is I've got rigging issues with my wheel pants and gear leg fares and my plane flys crooked and I don't know whether to fix my Van's wheel pants / fairings and get them in the streamline correctly, or start from scratch and install the slimmer SJ wheel pants????? Any suggestions would be nice. I don't care about quality issues of one product over the other or things like that. Just want to know if anyone has tested different wheel pants and have seen any gains or losses. Thanks, AJ
