No offense but a lot of the time the "higher end" expensive companies use the same no name parts as the cheaper ones and simply re-brand and re-price them. I dont know that Hotchkis or Cusco have done any extra research to get these things out on the market. In fact if I had to guess I'd say they are just using G37 stuff. It serves the same purpose and its not exactly a part that requires tons of research. Just because they got their products out to the market late and they charged more money doesn't mean anything to me. Do you think that if Cusco made bars that are the same "stiffness" as the Stillen, they would be better just because they are cusco?

Modshack - You went with 15mm all around? I was hoping to do 20mm rear and 15mm Front, but now you got me thinking about doing 15 all around. I wish the stock wheels were narrower and uglier...it would make buying new wheels so much easier...

Im thinking 20mm rear, 15mm front spacers with Stillen bars set medium in the rear. I think that would work fine with my slightly tail happy alignment. I've never used spacers before though, do they mess up your alignment?
