In all honesty are the Alums with the 3 piece bushings worth the extra money for a basically daily driven car with minimal track use? I'm going to be installing some gears here soon and am really interested in getting the rear end biting a bit harder before the gears go in. The car is nearly stock right now...

The steel ones are fine for your car.

I went with the aluminum ones for weight savings. They are about half the weight of the stock LCA. I'm very impressed with the way they bite on launches. The aluminum alloy used by Steeda is actually stronger than the steel ones. IMO, they are well worth the extra money!

You'll be fine with steeda's steel LCAs...but the deflection reduction out of the aluminum ones with the 3piece bushings is pretty nice...I think it is worth the money...that's the way I'm going

Just FYI...The Pro3i LCA's are made with the 3 piece bushings also. I was told they have a similar design as the Maximum Motorsports LCA's so I might pick up a set of Pro3i's. Unless I find a killer deal on some Steeda aluminums that is.
