Pre tire side exit exhaust

So does anyone make one? Been searching for 2 hours and doesn't look like it. So how do i get the local muffler shop to make me one? Think i want a 5" downpipe, to 5" pre tire exit in black.

Question, not to butt in but what is the reason/purpose you want your exhaust to exit prior to the rear tire?????

There is a few people with exhaust like that. it should be easy, and the biggest down-pipe is going to be 4". And the muffler shop won't make a downpipe

I just used the MBRP 4" kit....installed it back to about 12" in front of the rear tire then used one of the leftover pieces to turn it out. It hung out about 7" from the truck, I drove it down to a muffler shop and they cut it for me then welded it all up for $25. Now I'm just waiting for a black tip to put on it.

One good thing about turning it out in front of the tire is that if you can fit an oversized spare under your truck if you have bigger than stock tires.

I don't like my exhaust like this because I constantly have to clean the rear passenger side tire along with the rear shocks and everthing in that area. I guess if you don't blow any black smoke out then it would be alright but im working on getting a 4in single that runs all the way to the rear.

I have read in other forums of shortened tire life on the rear tire by the exhaust because of the added heat, anybody else ever experience or hear of this?

In my eyes all it does is creates a mess on your tires, rims as was stated. I havent read about decreased tire life though. It could be true. Also I would think that it would make the exhaust alot louder in the cab.

Just thinking bigger and shorter exhaust leads to lower egts. What I believe is the biggest advantage of stacks. But that's just not me.
