grantelli or hotpart?

these are my options for subframe connectors... both are tubular and from the pictures appear to be the same thing structurally. MY question is what should i go with? I can get the granatellis for $150 and the hotparts go for $126. So are the granatelli tubulars worth paying the extra $24 over the hotpart tubulars?

I don't know why you are limiting your selection to those two, I'd buy BMR or Spohn over those. But if it sbetween those two, I'd buy them from Hotpart since judging by the photos they appear to be the same SFCs, Granatelli does not manufacture any thing themselves, they just relabel other products and sell them under their name.

Re: grantelli or hotpart?

$126.50 is our price delivered, which is a far cry from $150.00 plus shipping. These subframe connectors have been private labeled from many of your favorite vendors for years and will continue to be private labeled for years to come. We have no problem with people recommending other products over ours but it would be helpful to all if it was followed with some tech on why.

Re: grantelli or hotpart?

I have seen the prices on those BMR and Spohns but my question is... Hotpart sells them for $126 shipped while these companies cost $150 and shipping. They look exactly the same so what could be so different about them? I need to hear from somone who has tried hotpart sfcs on here.

I got my Granatelli tubes welded Sunday, and they seem pretty good.
