Its never to late to install them, I would suggest them before you do get the dimples. I bought my car completely stock with 59K and it had them. Defiantly go with the weld ins and there is many choices out there. As for lightness I would do a serach and see what comes up. I know mine arent the lightest on the market but I wanted box as well as a great fit, also ones that went around the rear control arm mount. If you decide to stick with a lighter model the tubular designs are going to be the way to go.

BMR Tubulars are pretty light. I have them on my TA. For the price they can't be beat.

if you are loking for strength go for a boxed SFC if your car is lowered than look for tubular as most people find the boxed hang a bit low on lowered fbodies
