BMR and Pfadt are both very well respected. I go with BMR products because I've had good luck with their products, and they have excellent customer service.

I just recently put BMR's trailing arms on my car. I wasn't haven't any issues (car launches fine at the track) I just got them for added strength/stability because I like to drag race.

Both products are quality products, I can tell you that our trailing arms (TCA026) are less expensive then their trailing arms and our trailing arms are in stock and ready to ship out same days as long as they are ordered before 3PM eastern time that day.

Either one is going to be a good choice. I don't have parts from either Mfg but I'm liking BMR more and more all the time. Both Mfg are heavily involved in the 5th Gen and seem to provide good customer service.....but I will say that the BMR prices seem to fit my wallet a little better.

Keep researching and go with the one you feel the most comfortable with.


And....on that note, so that you'll be an informed consumer, take a look at Spohn's Del-Sphere TAs. Once I saw the videos of how they worked I was sold.

Spohn makes arms also, as well as LCA's for the rear.
