What Racer said.. Solid bearings are prone to more vibration, and therefore more abuse...I'm sure the physical flat portion of the plate and hardware may be the same as cheaper brands, but what about the bearing? It simply won't last as long... And remember... YOU CAN ONLY HANDLE WELL IF YOUR ALIGNMENTS RIGHT!!! So make sure you get taken care of.

Ahhh credit.. No, I don't mean to brag about the exhaust. I was more or less letting those interested know what I am doing with my soon to come tax returns. My bank accounts empty, and I need to save up for school.. Long live the 240 dream though..
