Global West SFC, are they worth it ?

I have a 94 with T-tops. I have been researching here and see that even though the Global West tubulars are 2 inchs thick and the BMR's are 1 5/8 inch thick , the Global West doesnt seem to be to popular on this site.
I cant decide then if I should go with BMR tubular or Global West Tubular. Or the BMR boxed, but I am concerned they will hang to low.
Opinions on the above sure would be appreciated.

BMR redesigned the boxed so that they don't hang down.... If you make sure to get a new set (not old stock), it will be the new revision that doesn't hang down.

On the other hand, I have the original BMR boxed, and although they "hang down", you have to pretty much be down on the ground to see them. The catalytic converter hangs lower than the BMR's... And the boxed BMR's provide a nice stable landing for a jack or a lift pad.... I can see that as a big plus over tubular.

BMR boxed SFCs don't hang so low. Like Michael said, they aren't as low as the cat.
I don't know much about Global West's products because their website is so pitifully short in pictures. Their stuff doesn't seem to be real popular probably because they don't advertise very well and their stuff is relatively expensive.
