I've found a couple of posts saying it is a bad idea but I want to be as sure as possible because I'm happy with the Stillen other than this and don't want to replace it if it's OK to just leave the washers there.
Did you try hose clamps on the rubber donut hangers? Very easy to raise the system a smidge with this technique.. Worked great on my car to get that little extra..
