Default Looking for longer rubber exhaust hangers. Where?

What I want:
A rubber exhaust hanger that let's the muffler hang about 1/2 in lower than it currently does.

Why:
My WS2 currently touches the frame at certain rpm when hot and creates a loud ratting noise, it also touches the plastic bumper which I don't like.

My solution:
Make it hang 1/2 in lower

Anyone know where to get something like this bor another easy solution?

Thanks

Same problem here with mine on my em1. My hangers are from carquest and I believe they are shorter than oem ones. I've been meaning to get some from the dealership because I'm thinking they'll provide enough drop. Are your hangers oem?

Ya I have the original OEM ones with 150k on them :-/ I searched, but I don't see that for sale. I tried putting dynomat above muffler on frame which helped, but its still there it needs to just not touch period.

Go to any automotive store and bring your stock one to measure against the new one. Different model cars with different lengths.

You could also get universal hangers at the auto parts store. These may require putting in two self-tapping screws and a hose clamp and will not be show quality but they work and are easy to find

Sounds ghetto as hell lol, self tapping screws no no.

But I will hit the auto stores when I get a chance, sounds like a good place to start if not I'll try online some more if I don't just bite on the ones above.

Bough the Kartboy WRX ones, I'll report back, I got the 15mm version. It seems if I undo the drivers side hanger it goes right where it should be, but I just don't trust it with one hanger! So I just bought one and will just be replacing the inside driver side one.
