I'm not sure if they would hang lower than the LT's, but I see one advantage to them hanging just lightly lower than the collectors. Of you scrape, you would scrape on the sub frame connectors instead of the collector. Since the sub frame connectors are tied into the frame, it basically does not damage the car, it just scrapes the sub frame connectors. It's better than scraping a hole in your collectors!
