Default Question about Perrin and Whiteline rear lateral links

Does any have either one of these rear links. Looking for input to decided which one to get.

I have the Perrins. They work great and actually allow more adjustment than the Whiteline, in that both arms can be adjusted.

I use them in combination with camber bolts to center a large tire between the fender and the coilover and adjust rear camber.

If your rear swaybar is borked or for any other reason your swaybar endlinks are at an odd angle, these lateral links can break under forces that the stock ones won't. Because I had a Whiteline WRX swaybar accidently in my STI, the endlinks were at a really horizontal angle and during testing I broke part of a Perrin Lateral Link. Perrin sent me a free replacement, even though it was obviously my fault.

Please note - the Whiteline parts that you reference in your link are for the WRX - NOT the STi.

There's a whole thread about this in the how-to area, and you can see pics of why this is.
