What's stronger when it comes to LCAs... the round ones or the square body ones?? (Like the Granetelli vs. Steeda, for example)

Both circular / boxed will be 10x stronger than the stockers so it won't really matter which one you pick.

I am thinking:
Tubular = Stronger resistance to torsional forces

Boxed = Stronger resistance to bending forces.


I like the tubes because they don't use up as much space, but then again my entire car is stock (basically) so what do I know.
