I've read that the clamps included with this package are sub-par. Anybody have feedback on those, and if you replaced them, where did you get them?

Is the clamp issue that the supplied don’t work or that you were more comfortable with the ones you bought?

Given the fitment, I can't imagine the supplied would not have or develop an exhaust leak. But I didn't use them so I can't say definitely.
