But like graham said...it shouldn't really cause any problems since the weight of the car is pushing down. Any weird sounds?

Actually, yeah. Around 30-40 mph I kind of get an odd whum-whum-whum that sounds more like tire noise than anything else. May be from a recent tire rotation if they did that when I took it in for an oil change (wrist still on surgical recovery).

Makes me wonder which side is correct. The passenger side, which is the tighter of the two, squeaks a lot. No squeaking from newer looser looking non-eff up shop side. I will have to stop back in and check with them.
