What looks better?
what looks better, the duals exiting strait out the back, or exiting at about a 45 under each corner of the rear bumper?

Simply a matter of preference. I have had several different setups, side exit in front of wheel, side exit behind the wheel, straight out the back. I really liked the side exit in front of the wheel but it is a lot louder! Behind the weel causes your tips to wear out faster!

I like straight out the back but leave room to get the spare out.

I vote no pipes. just get them turned down at the muffler. Gives the truck a meaner sound with the echo off the ground too.

Well, check out my truck, it's going out 45 angles out the corners, and a few of my buddies have it out the back, i recommend going out the corners, going straight out the back will get you in trouble, if you back up into a snow pile, they're all buggered up.
