Rigis Struts?

Anyone run rigid struts? I just put them on I haven't really noticed a difference from the stock shocks on the 48, only when I go over a bridge, but my main question is the ones that do run them have you guys let any out of that rear tire for a little cushion, does it work?
I use struts about 1/2 of the time, depending on what I'm doing and where I plan on going. But I can certainly notice the difference, even from my 11" shocks.
But to answer your question, I have never let air out of my tires to act as a "shock", and I don't expect that I ever will.

If you can't notice any difference between shocks and struts, then....either you have really smooth, well maintained roads there.......or......, you aren't very perceptive.

If Im not mistaken the shocks on the 48 are listed as having something like 1.63" of travel and in reality it may be less. They're fairly harsh. When I added a spring seat it helped the ride quality a good bit. So much so that Im considering ditching the shocks for struts as well.
