Pro Mini control arms?

Anybody running these? They look very well made. They are a little pricey at $299.00 but they look fully milled from billet aluminum. I also like how they did the bushings. I don't want a harsh ride or added road noise. I have some crap arms that need replacing.

I don't know the weight but I know what you are thinking. They do look solid and don't appear the lightest out there. That said, they look extremely well made.

Hi LongBoard
I have these arms installed to draw in some of the Neg camber created by lowering the car.
Why did I choose this particular arm: Its milled one piece up to the adjustable nut, stress is not concentrated at the bushing/joint.
Did it introduce any harshness: none discernible by me.
I dont know how much weight is saved but its lighter than the OE arms by at least 1 pound per pc.
How does the car feel: Like it always has, fun.
cheers

I like my Noltec arms...
they do the same thing, you can't see them on the car, but if weight conscious, I can't help you there. They are still the best price out I believe. I paid $300 for 2x pair (upper and lower). Search around....
By the way...
.. to avoid confusion as to which brand Im referring to...the Pro Mini kit..
When I bought it, it was marketed as an Eibach product. Its actually made by an aftermarket performance part manufacturer in the U.S. They manufacture front camber kits and control arms for most car makes. So its not a 1 off producer.
Hope this helps.
Good Luck.
