Default Spacers and Exhaust Tip Angle Question

Hi Guys,

1-Is there a downside for adding spacers? if not what is a good size to add to my 2023 Carpatiaon 22 inch wheels, and what brand is best.

2- Is there a way that the exhaust tips can be cut and welded back to make them straight instead of droopy look?

Thanks guys.

Tips are pointed down to keep water out of your very large rear muff I would guess.

Best bet regarding the tips would be to buy an aftermarket system like Milltek or Quicksilver.

Wheel spacers are dangerous and should be illegal. Just buy wheels with the offset you want.

That makes sense, that’s why I asked, thanks

I did, it was expensive! I guess I'll live with it for now, thank you.

So you're saying every other vehicle on the road that has tips that point straight out is doing it wrong?

Just ordered a Milltek system and got a 20% discount just by asking 👍🏻 They gave me the Black Friday deal already. I went for the special edition in cerakote black so got it for around $5700 instead of $7100.

Sounds like a voluntary robbery.
