don't have to worry about crushing my exhaust pipe when i have a full car, they squat more so they don't want to spin as much and they seem to corner better

Meh, too much work for little gain.
K frame would be good though. Clearance for alloy sump equipped motors, bigger choice of brakes and Wheels.
