Straight edge tip vs Rolled edge

I have 2 6x24" stacks I am using as tips on my duals, they are miters and have a staight edge, I am looking at 7" tips from farmboys dielse that are 22 inches long but they are rolled edge and I am not sure thats what I want.....

Can anyone post some pics up of there rolled edge tip please> pros and cons if any with it, water laying in it or anything...

THanks

well if I bring my truck down to earth and get it out of the stars I think the 6" tips would look fine..... So now, do I leave the lift on or 2.5 inch hangers on 35s?

What happened to your big huge 8" tips?

I'm with Kris, I don't like the rolled edge cause it makes the opening smaller.
