I have BMR Tubular Lower Control Arms w/poly bushings and love them. No more crazy vibration(wheel hop)when you get the wheels spining and it just seems to stick to the road better.

My 2006 Mustang GT has a stock engine, and even with that I had wheel hop. I then swapped out the LCAs for Spohn
chrome moly tubular LCAs. They did save some weight, eliminate the wheelhop and increase traction. But I tried everything to eliminate the squeaking and couldn't do it. With the music on or at WOT you couldn't hear them. But with no music and low speed and bumpy roads my wife and friends could hear them.

So I went with the GT500 LCAs. They are totally quiet and eliminate the wheelhop, but again that is on a stock engine with only 4.10 gears and a tune.
Spohns are lighter and probably better for you. Why don't you buy them from me!
