I'd get up in the morning and find the car had relaxed so far that it was
resting on the tire....(couldn't slide a sheet of paper between them:fender and tire)......
it would rise right up upon start-up......but would continue to sink when off....I tried to find a pic of the part, but I can't find it yet.......

found my old thread: Air suspension bellows.......it what they were
