Default Coule of LCA questions.

I'm looking at getting a set of BMR LCA's and have a few questions. If I go with the Poly/Rubber end combo, how much more road noise will I have? How does the tubular and Boxed compare? Is Chromemoly needed or does the regular ones work well enough? Also how much added traction would be acheived on F1's. Sorry for all the questions, any input is appreciated!

I have the BMR poly/poly combo with the mild steel tubular construction. I did a bunch of other mods at the same time, so I can't comment accurately re the noise added issue. No wheel hop problems at all.

I’ve had both the poly/rubber and the poly/poly. Get the poly/rubber, you will like it’s road manners a lot better.

I have the BMR poly/poly, and I didn't notice anymore road noise than the factory LCA's. If that helps any... <img src="graemlins/camaro.gif" border="0" alt="[Chevrolet]" />
