Default Control Arms

I am looking at getting some control arms. I was looking at the Stedda Uppers and Lowers. My question is, is there a big difference performance wise to justify the price being almost double for the aluminum over the steel?

IMO I think steeda is a bit overpriced but I do think they are one of the best. I looked into them but granetelli won me over.

Are there any site sponsors that sell these? Preferably they sell Steeda Zinc plated Sub frame connectors also. Do they come in aluminum?

All of the GMS sets I am finding are around 300. I believe they are only available in steel. If so they are the same price as Steeda's steel.

I guess aluminum is not a big deal for control arms? I was just wondering if there is a particular place to get the GMS for that much cheaper than the Steeda. If they are the same price are GMS better?
