2009 GT500 with about 650hp to rear wheels, what lower control arms recommended? Seems the current ones on the car now are getting crushed to a certain degree and it is gaining clearance.

What is the primary and secondary purpose of the car? Depending on what your intended use will depend on the best arms for your situation.

With that kind of power your going to want a something like our extreme joint version with a hybrid poly/metal ball bushing design. Standard poly bushings can take a beating but 650hp to the rear tires is a lot of shock loading when your launching at high RPM on drag radials or slicks.
