I dont have duals, but am lowered with STRANOs with are about 1/4" taller than prokit. It all depends on how you drive pulling into steep driveways, speed bumps, railroad tracks etc. Its a learning process and you will scrape every now and then, its a small price to pay for the sound and look your after.

I had 3" duals with Magnaflow 4x9s on my car last year and I could just about fit a pop can under the muffler. I'd barely ever scrape. I did spend a **** load of time tweaking it to get it to tuck up nice.

Im running 3" true duals and prokit on my 94 and barely ever scrape. The only time I will scrape is when the entire car bottoms out from a big dip in the road. Even then its not that bad and its the turndowns that scrape. If i cut them flush with the pipes i probably wouldnt have that problem.

My duals have about 3 1/2" of clearence, not the best for a DD. I have them tucked all the way up, I got a set with a slight twist in the x-pipe from TSP.

just got the prokit in the mail today but I am not 100% sure I want to install it..

Is there 2 different drops with the prokit?? I bought the 1.5front & the 1.2rear.. Reason I ask is I had bought the prokit I have now from a buddy used and the stance is fine but I seen pics with it looking lower

DECISIONS!!!
