SRR makes billet aluminum ones. It's not strain on the LCA's that you need to worry about though. It's the ripping of the subframe if your bar is too thick. Which bar are you installing?

Are you getting a little too massive?

If you're not a hardcore track racer, don't bother with aftermarket LCA's unless your stock ones are messed. As for a sway bar, if you got the money, go with the Comptech combo sway/tie bar. If not, I like the ITR bar with Beaks mounting kit.

agreed

The SRR are a nice bling factor when cars behind you see the nice anodized purple LCA, but apparently they're not really all that light compared to stock, and as for strength I cannot say, but a daily driver wouldn't seem to find much use for them

The Comptech/ST combo is great, but like SW20 said, the ITR + beaks kit is equally just as excellent, but the drawback is you don't get a nice shiney tie bar in that option

I forgot to mention, the only general complaint about the Comptech unit is that it sometimes gets noisy on some cars.

If you drive in the city a lot, beware of increased tail happy behaviour...I just did a SIR complete susp/brakes, so that included the sway bars too, but I haven't tested it yet. The GS-R bar doesn't mount using SIR endlinks...so beware of what you buy. And if you want a GSR bar...I have one for sale for $60 no endlinks, but have D-brackets.

I don't carry Comptech stuff, but you can probably expect to pay about $600 or so.
