Rear LCA and Panhard Bar
I'm in the market for rear lca, and panhard bar I have done some research but still can't really find my answer. What exactly is the purpose of say poly/poly, poly/rod, rod/rod which would be better for street use/daily driving. Any help would be appreciated

It's hard to get into great detail in print.... frankly I often recommend a split setup, as in I'll do different types of LCA's than than the PHB as there are different things going on at each location.
Poly is typically the most quiet, but where the LCA's are concerned also make the suspension sticky in roll/over bumps. Typically the best compromise between noise and performance here is a Poly front with a good articulating joint in the rear. I carry/would recommend a UMI Roto-joint in that location. On the PHB, if it's a street car mostly I'd probably recommend a poly PHB at both end, but one that is easy to adjust.
I have all the different LCA's and PHB's that are out there. Mostly do UMI, but have other brands too (just no reason to use the others IMHO).
Anyway, happy to help if you want to call. I'd be better able to explain why you might not want the cheapest LCA option.... or maybe you decide you do. But I have the parts and fair pricing on them too.

What kind of backspacing??? If they have a decent amount of offset, you may have to go with rod/rod with offset spacers for the added clearance, but without measuring or test fitting it would be hard to say.

There really is no way to know for sure.... the PHB would only help if you are rubbing in a certain way such as the inner fender or LCA on say the left and/or the body on the right (or vice-versa). If you rub both inners, or both outers, then the PHB won't help you because that's a wheel offset/fitment issue.
The only way LCA's would help a rub is if the tire is actually rubbing the LCA itself. In that case a tubular or offset set of LCA's might make enough room. But if you are rubbing those you are also probably rubbing the body.
