Which of these two has more tire clearance and works better?

Springfields have shitloads of clearance and work decent if you swap out the shit pads they ship with.

I haven't used the fly spring hangers, but I do like my Springfields.  I agree with Tom that the stock pads are shit, though.  You can make them work, but they always felt kinda squishy to me.  Other flat pads make Springfields feel real stiff.
