i think the bottom line here is
most people dont know where to draw the line between buying a quality product and a shitty one.
a friend of mine said he bought some knockoff extended wheel studs and that he was driving a while back, he saw his wheel rolling down the street. yeah, go figure... i guess thats a performance benefit... watching your wheel rolling ahead of the car. he quickly reverted back to OE parts.
i dont understand you people. seriously, stupid stupid stupid. ive bought so many performance parts over the past decade. all you have to do is work hard and budget accordingly. i've supported companies like ARP for their studs, ATI for their crank dampers, whiteline for their coilovers.... there are a lot of good companies making good products. if i cant buy it new, i buy it used.
at the end of the day, i dont think you guys would know the difference between a good product vs a bad one if it hit you in the ass-hole. i have basic craftsman pro tools and also snapon. i for one can tell you that some things are worth spending money on, but not all. you have to buy what you need. you have to know what you need.
unfortunately, a lot of you guys dont even know your ass from your elbow
