The best would be Wolfe IMO, they make a true hold and weld cage/rollbar. Only problem is cost, but you get what you pay for.

Another option is S&W Racecars, they do pre-notch mosttubes but you do have do some fabrication.

As for Maximum, I have been told there is alot of fabrication to do with their kits.

I am personally going to go with wolfe when I get around to putting one in... my cousin lives about 20 minutes from them. so I am going to save on shipping and pick it up.

You get what you pay for, I would say no. I have looked over a coulpe of cars that had the kit intalled and the fit is not very good.

I purchased my 8 point from s&w and it required a little fab, but that's to be expected. Plus the rear bars are bent to clear the back seats, but I don't see how in the hell anyone will be able to get through the jungle gym to sit back there.... (petite girls i guess!)
