Default Best bet on SFCs

I'm looking at getting a set of SFCs. I'm looking at BMR boxed and tubular, SLP weld ons, LG Motorsports G2s, AMS tubular and Spectral Solutions tubulars. First off, I bug about weight. The tubulars are the lightest, would I be giving up too much strength with the tubulars? Are the Double Diamond styles worth the extra weight? Would the BMR boxed be the best compromise? I'm looking at getting a 6 piont cage in the future, since this would add some rigidity would the tubulars be the ticket?
I use the car for AutoX maybe some open track events and for fun on the local mountain roads. Any help would be appreciated, especially from some folks that do alot of AutoX and Roadracing.
Thanks.

Go with the LG parts. They have been extensively R'ed & D'ed and proven time and time again! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />
