If I were you i'd probably get the cheapest ones I could find. UPR's maybe. CC plates really do nothing for performance, i havent heard of any ever breaking or going bad. No benefits for spending the extra money.

Buying the steeda's is a complete waste of money in my opinion.

Well, we are all entitled to an opinion. You get what you pay for and IMO, UPR products are a waste, but that's just my opinion

If it has a lifetime warranty then you're covered, "hence, that's why I got steeda", but hey, maybe the UPR has a lifetime wrnty as well.

I just think you have to look at what you're buying... They are CC plates, nothing complicated. They are both CNC cut with some bolts. Steeda overcharges for everything. I can almost gaurentee you could install UPR's and steeda's, get the car aligned you would never know the difference without look at them.

MM makes great stuff; its all american made. I'd go with MM over steeda any day of the week on any product, however, i'd still go with the cheapest on CC plates. No advantages to spending the extra 40-90$ depending on what you choose.

I've never in my life heard of a broken CC plate from any company.

Maximum Motorsports is what I would go with... top quality stuff, better quality than either Steeda or UPR for sure. Anything suspension wise I would consider MM first.

I would think CC plates would help performance....When you lower your car, you change the camber ever so slightly. Straighten the tires back up, and you get better wear and a more free roll.
