Can't got wrong with boxed weld-ins. I don't know why anybody gets bolt in ones, do you really ever remove them?

Only when you upgrade to a rollbar and they are just added weight.

Hello,

Thanks for the interest and I will be glad to help.

Our tubular weld in and boxed weld are about a $15 difference during the sale, with the boxed being the more expensive of the two.

Both styles would work just fine for any application. The tubular style is 4lbs lighter than the boxed style and also tuck up a little better into the car. Boxed style hangs down below the pinch of the car approximately 3/8" and can be seen from the side fot he car. I know some people like this and some don't.

If I can help anymore please ask. Thank you!
Ryan

For people that dont wont to weld on there car and if you ever might put the car back to stock you can just take them off. Also for people that dont have a welder can just bolt them up.

Hope that helps,
