Being that the tubs are just sheetmetal, I wouldnt want my rear downbars going there. I would put the two down-bars on the rear subframes in the t-top well.
But Im no pro, just my opinion

I don't think it would work either. just get your installer to change the rear bars to come down above the fuel tank or the rear frame.
I am doing tubs and plan to put the bars on the rear frame or I might do the rear frame and above the fuel tank just for extra structure.
the oem wheel wells are way stronger than the mini tubs I could'nt see them supporting any thing you could probley dent them just by jumping on them much less the weight of the car on them.
