Default Who has ever heard of the follwoing polyurethane products....

I was looking at the overboost website and found the follwing and was wonderin if these products are worth to get:

Energy Suspension Tie-Rod Boots
Energy Suspension Front Ball Joint Boot

would these even benefit or do any type of handling improvement on my 97 Civic?

they are a waste, you have to take OFF the factory covers which are sealed. The ES boots are not. Therefore dirt and grime can get in.

ahhh come on now. they aren't that bad. i'll admit.. they don't do ****. but if you should happen to tear your stock boots while working on your car, they're a cheap replacement.. they look coo... and as long as you grease up the ball joints when installing them.. you'll be fine. but i wouldn't tear my suspension apart just to install them.

Exactly, I have had these on my floor for months now and havent put them in.
It seems they are not a friendly install unless you are perhaps tearing the front apart to put in GSR or ITR brakes... - like I am !-
