Default A-arms...which better/lighter? BMR or PA

like the subject says...which set of lower A-arms are better/lighter. I'm looking to lose weight so i'm more interested in the lighter set. BMR or PA guys?

Thanks <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" />

The weights that I got when looking into the BMR pieces was;

actual k-member weight was 24.5 pounds

shipping weight (actual weight will be less) for the a-arms was;
6 lbs for the upper
22 pounds for the lower

Maybe somebody else experineced with the others will chime in.

I have PA Racing's A-Arms on my 2002 SS and they squeak like heck. Any suggestions for providing a quieter ride around town to avoid removing them?
