If you are slammed, then sure you will have clearance issues I'm sure. But if you are slammed, scraping the exhaust is generally the least of your concerns IMO.

I'm dropped on swift springs 1inch drop in the rear and haven't scraped so far. The lowest part of the exhaust is about 3.5 inches from the ground. The only time I ever scraped I think is when I hit a high speed bump a bit too fast and that was when I was stock height. The small scrape on the bottom edge of the CF cans are barely visible from anywhere but directly underneath the car. I didn't even see it until I felt for it with my hands.
I've had my exhaust almost a year with around 24k miles so far and one guy at a dyno day I went to on Saturday asked how long I've had my exhaust because it looks brand new. He was shocked I told him a year almost with 24k miles on it.
The clearance issue is really limited to slammed cars and those who like to speed through speed bumps lol
