Default What gives?

I was looking for some of these type of LCA's through several places and I found these. They are right at $100 cheaper than any other brand. Whats the catch? Quality? Just wondering why they're so cheap.

i'm not so sure why they are so cheap, I've also been wondering that myself. I have been thinking of getting the strut tower tops from them but i'm alittle unsure. I myself don't like the look of those they look way to fragile to me. If I were you I'd dish out the extra 50 bucks and get spohn, umi, or bmr. All three seem pretty reputable and worth the extra money. I went for Spohn myself because I liked their design and I did not want any spherical ends like Umi's are.

I have a set and they are nicely made. They are of very good quality.

I just installed their SFCs and found them to be of decent quality. I would not avoid them just because they are less money.
