Not worth a damn.

All the joints are free moving for lack of better words versus welded.

Regardless, the mounting points where it bolts on to the rear of the car are not major points anyways.

Drive a hatch completely stock for a while and you will see that area of the car has little to no flex.

The only time I ever hear mine squeak is when I hit the bottom of my driveway to go up it, and it is a 35-40* angle.

They may be ok, but for the money and noticable performance, totally not worth it.
Looks cool, but I cant vouch for what itll do. I WILL vouch highly for my 20$ ebay knock off of a type-R front tower bar that WAS noticable in the corners, even a lil at like 35mph, more so at 60 on hard corners. I also felt that lower tie braces make the car's tires feel more planted to the ground, flatter, better gripping, but a possible feel ( i dont know) that they may loose traction earlier, but would have you getr back in control sooner as well.

Its quite obvious that I was chasing the wrong intuition.
