well IMO straight out the back is for a street truck=2wd 45'd out is more of a off Road look=4wd. I have nothing against 2wd its just more of a street truck. some trucks look good straight out some look good 45'd.

yeah I know it's just personal preference. 45's pretty much only appeal to me. I'll have the straight out the back's for the muscle cars.

Because most 2wd truck guys put lowering shackles in the rear to level it down, then the 45s look funny and have the potential to scrape.

If he tries climbing a dirt hill yes. At the corners has more of a possibility than under the bumper, because whatever the wheels go over, or whatever they come close to, the tip will hit.

Last year Ty here told me on AIM while at school he was backing out and his passenger right tip scraped the curb.

Run the pipes through the middle of the back seat and exiting out the roof. Interior stacks!!!
