Exhaust is vibrating a bit..
 
I noticed the other day that my cat back exhaust is vibrating at idle a bit.. enough to cause me to post this lol.

It's not hitting anything.. just visually vibrating (the tips).

Is this normal? Do others experience this?

Will stiffer exhaust hangers solve this, but maybe transfer the vibration into the car? I recently installed a cat delete front pipe, maybe I tightened the connection near the donut gasket too much? (where the spring bolts are, not sure what they are officially called)

Any insight or help is appreciated!

Check the hangers if the bolts were loose you would hear an exhaust leak.

Yea no leak that I can hear.. I guess it's time to upgrade my hangers?

You might be right that the vibrations could transfer to the car. Exhaust vibration might be better than third brake light rattling or something....
