The longtubes do hang low so they would be very close to the ground and scrub very easily.

in michigan, I've had my exhaust scrape (mufflers prob) on crappy roads, let alone, speed bumpers, my driveway if I go too fast up/down it... if you wanna go low, you gotta go SLOW (on stuff like that)

So I just installed them last night along with the H-pipe and man do they hang low. I took the car for a test drive and I already started scraping. On the plus side, they sound amazing!!
