I have these hangers on my Tanabe MT exhaust and like them a lot. Only very minorly uneven hanging. I am sure that if I'd left the OEM hangers on it would be worse. The aftermarket ones are definitely stiffer/more solid.

this is all I did:
All I did was push the muffler tip in the direction i wanted while pulling on the ziptie at the sametime in order to tighten it. I did this on both because I wanted both higher and centered. I also used two zipties on each just for better support. The hangers do not heat up so the zipties will not melt.

nope, there is no melting whatsoever. yesterday would've been a good test since I drove 2 hrs straight two ways and there are no issues with melting.
