Default Autozone Ball joints/tie rods vs OEM

Well autozone is only like 6-7 buckes cheaper which would save me 30 bucks, but they also have Lifetime warrantys. So my question is, which is the better value? I mean im obsessed with OEM, but lifetime warranty sounds like a better deal on parts that wear as fast as these. Any opinions?

I bought my lower balljoints from eBay. Not OEM or Autozone, but they have held up for a year so far.

I'd go with the Autozone units. The are better overall than OEM IMO because most have grease fittings and they have alsothe other attributes you mentioned. GL
