aFe offering for rear arms

Anyone try these over the BMR offerings?

Curious for opinions on them. They're a bit more pricey, but look interesting. And likely lighter weight as well.

I have these on my 1LE. They work great. Mine are the original PFADT brand tho. Pfadt went out of business and AFE purchased the rights to their suspension components and are now manufactured by AFE. Pfadt was top tier when it came to the 5th gen stuff.

As far as the toe rods, they are a step down vs the Gen5s with the OE spherical toe rods. They are a step down because a spherical joint is far superior to poly.

I can vouch for that! I have their 1.25 springs in my Camaro for 12 years. Nice ride and stance.

BMR offers a spherical toe rod.
