I'm against the Rotas, but at least wheels do take a bit of engineering to put together. After all, they do have to support 2000+ pounds of vehicle.

Strut bars on the other hand....are just pieces of steel/aluminum. The harder and stiffer they are, the better. I don't see too much engineering in that. With that being said, no "engineered" flat piece of steel should cost anything more than a hundred, IF even that.

Default Re: Which Strut Tower Bar Replica to get? (R you serious)

i would suggest getting the mugen replica ones because if you compare it to the brand name cost it would be like 80-140 bucks for a front strut bar and another 80-140 for a rear strut bar and it would cost him 160-280 for two bars that do barely anything thats noticeable

if you ask me i would buy some shity *** no name strut bar any day of ebay for 20 bucks and use the money for something that would make a suspension difference such as a upgraded rear sway or something to that extent

ohhh yea and to all those rota haters why hate on rotas some people on the board are college students who work minimum wage jobs (**** i know i am) and cant afford to blow huge wads of cash on a good brand name rim cause they dont have the cash or would rather spend that money on motor/suspension work so why hate they just want their car to look nice and besides rotas are a big upgrade when comparing to the stock 13/14 inch blackies
