Default BMR Box VS Tube..

I searched yielded not much, Basically I remember a long time ago when I bought my BMR tubular I was worried about ground clearance and was told the box style would be lower than tube. I since hear BMR changed the desine of the box. Now I got a friend who I am helping him build his car Im worried about the ground clearance because of where he lives. I want him to put in the box but am worried about ground clearance so is this going to be a problem or not? Thanks in advance!

The boxed style subframes should not have any kind of ground clearance issues. To give you an idea of how low they are on the car they hang down about 1/2" below the pinch weld on the rocker panel. The part # for the boxed subframes will be SFC001 and can be found here-

will all the distributors of BMR parts have the new style sfcs or is it better to order directly from BMR?
