Looking for more advice. This 140 has wheel extenders, should we remove them or leave them on

Ah, let the games begins!

I have straight early legs, when I removed my extenders all of a sudden the wheel shimmys stopped, the plane tracked straighter, I lost 5 pounds of metal. I adjusted my brake pedals a little more leaning forward as I heard if you were ham-footed on the brakes you'd put it on it's nose. Learned to fly it that way, been happy for 30 years so far....
