Has anyone used a set of these Granatelli?

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1,1&item=8054320400&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWA%3AIT

Is it worth saving money on these or go with more expensive ones?

i tried buying cheap ones for my car and everything didnt work out so well. just spend the extra money and go with BBK's you'll save yourself alot of trouble and hassle

the granetellis are better than bbk, the bbk units are a boxed and work great under load but i got a lot of wheel hop out of them, stick with tubular units or even adjustables like the maximum motorsports

I have the granatelli's lower's and they are OK. I am sure there are better ones out there. Best I have cut is a 1.60 60 ft. [burnout]

Wolfe, Team Z, and Baseline will have lowers for you and bet they are the best!!!

Maximum Motorsports

I'll be installing some Team Z (same as baseline) relocated uppers along with a set of ride-height adjustable Maximum Motorsports lowers on a few customers cars soon.
Gonna end up doing the same setup on the Wife's GT & shoot for better than the current 1.5 60fts.
Of course this is more drag strip oriented (better control arm geometry & easy adjustment), but it's also perfectly streetable.

interesting read up on global west's control arms & maximum motorsport's control arms. i thought these were the same, but i guess their bushings are totally different from everyone elses. although between these two, their spherical bushings are placed on opposite sides [Confused] check out the links:
