What's your power level? If you're making under 550rwhp, there's no reason to go 3" over 2.5" If you're not making anywhere near that power, you'll benefit from 2.5" duals as there is more than enough flow and the lower volume will maintain better exhaust velocity, adding to power.

What? You do know that 550rwhp is close to 675hp at the flywheel.....the best 2.5" duals on the planet won't even come close to supporting that kind of power. Good 2.5" duals can support up to ~500fwhp (~430rwhp) before becoming a restriction, it's been tested over and over.
To answer the OP's question, it all depends on how you run the exhaust. I don't know that I'd try to go under the axle being lowered that far. Dumping it would be far easier, but if I had to go out the back I'd take them both over the passenger side.

if you think of it... the body is lowered 1.75" not the axle. Axle clearance is axle clearance. I have seen a couple of under the axle setups on big drops. 2.5" TDs and you will be good.
