Welding on the frame connectors is always the best option. That is why BMR only offers weld on connectors.

Its always nice to be able to bolt them in first and weld them at a later date. Saves some labor and time.

Great to hear

yup.. I bolted my UMI subframes on my car and welded them when I was comfortable doing so with my welder. I did notice a difference after I welded them so so welding is for sure better but even bolting them in made a huge difference in the stiffness.
