Question Benifits of Lower Control Arms

I'm looking at LCAs and would like to have some feedback from people that have them. Tell me what you think about them and what brand you haveand if you recommend them. Thanks for the info guys.

From the people I've talked to, they said they really noticed a difference. It helped them to hook up better, thus making response quicker...

I'm sure you'll get more feedback from people who actually have them...

What brand guys? BMR?

I love my BMR LCA's. Boxed are more for straight line performance, and the tubular ones are basically a good overall LCA. I got the tubular chromoly ones. They help a great deal with traction and handling. Definitly stick with BMR when it comes to suspension parts.

No. You don't need them, but they do help on either a stock or lowered car.
