How are they holding up since they are not stainless steel? How long have you had them?

i went with SLP LTs and o/r Y for my DD....only downside is they hang a lil low....other than that they are great!

if your not loaded with money, id say pacesetters. If youve got some money laying around id say QTP or Hooker

After a friend of mine has put them on every LSX car he's owned, I'm looking into Pacesetters. Awesome price and good fit.

My bad, I was thinking that was a different thread but just read through it and saw where the brands were at the bottom. Have read that one before but forgot that was there.

I'm either going to go with LPP or QTP. For the price paid, you really can't beat LPP.

My car is lowered with Eibach Sportlines and I have Pacesetter LTs and Y-pipe...I haven't scraped on anything.

Some people complain about scraping, but I think the main thing is you just need to watch to road and avoid obvious problems.

If your car is stock height, I really wouldn't worry about anything...My pacesetter system seems to have as much ground clearance as stock.
