Well, it's been a month. Had a round trip from Sacramento to LA.....450 miles each way.
No problem with any rubbing.

I had some obdII codes that I had to resolve. And am still addressing some ecu issues pior to my TTT (trip to texas) on Oct 12.

But I just ran a brief highway run.

At 63mph 1775rpms got 30.9mpg (didnot have the grill block or the front underbelly panel in place)

epa is 22mpg highway.
