Baris, I'm glad you love them. I told you it would feel like a no brainer after we installed them.

Thanks all for the input and offers. I think I have a set to borrow that I can take in today.

Not to take ANYTHING away from these links, but I swapped my reasr from 275 PS2s to 275 DRs (BFG) and the car was all of a suddent much tighter in a line. It takes me back to being concerned about the soft sidewall (lateral support) of the PS2s. If memory serves, they were the ones that had the rubbing failures on the CCW aggressive wheels. Changing tires removed the issue.

No ride difference at all.

The links are similar to the stock links aside the fact that Rennetch re-designed to support more HP. MB set up the links for the car as it is from the factory. The stock links work great without the added power some of our cars have.

Fully agreed. the OEM ones are just hollow tubes that flex easily. The toe links from RennTech will just minimize that flex. the ONLY drawback is that once youstrengthen one area, the next weak link shows up. Keep an eye on your bushings after this as they will start to see more energy.
