Pros: They stop the flex in the thin shafted stockers
Cons: Expensive for minimal gains

Well, i must admit, that i ordered these the day after i orderd the car, and had them in my hand for two months before the car arrived. I drove the car for a few weeks before i installed them, and did feel improvement once they were installed, but only minimal. My plan was to increase roll resistance without doing a sway bar. Turn in did increase a bit with them, but not a huge amount. No increase in noise either. With these installed, and a 1/8 toe out in the front, and a completely stock car, i could induce oversteer by lifting the throtle around corners, and i know i could not do that before the alignment and the drop links were installed. I think these would be really required with an aftermarket rear bar, as the you can flex the stock ones with your bare hands, so installing something with no give, and no flex would help alot more with a big rear bar than it would if you were running a stock bar. If you dont regularly push your car, you probably dont need these, but if you want them, there is no drawback to them. If you race alot, or have a big rear bar, i wouldnt hesitate to install them. I plan on getting a set for my front bar soon.
