The two options I would recommend are: Hotchkis or Helix.
As stated above, the Hotchkis arms use poly bushings to keep them quiet, but the Helix arms use a spherical bearing design.
Both have their benefits, it depends on what you want to do with the car.
If it is going to be a daily driver, I would recommend the Hotchkis arms, as the poly bushings require less maintenance than spherical bearings.
If you intend on spending time at the track and want to really feel the road, the Helix arms are the way to go. The spherical bearings give you a more direct feel, as they don't deflect like the poly bushings.
