IIRC co-phased antennas need to be around 9' apart for optimum performace, as recommended by Firestik.
I would recommend running a single coax to one side and run a live antenna and a dummy antenna if you want the dual antenna look. As far as tipping the antennas forward, i use Wilson 2000's and they are tipped forward , as i travel down the hwy the wind resistance will cause the antenna whip to flair back to a vertical postion. I know its a PIA to run a single coax but they're easier to tune and maintain.
