dang, hope nothing like that happens, anyhow, my information came from what the seller supplied, which was very minimal which is why this thread was suppose to poke fun at this product... to me from the ebay listing, these looked like an imitation from an imitation... hope these work for you though.

Yeah. It's a 240.

Snapped when he was "rolling" to a stop sign at 5 mph.

Probably cracked on a bump prior to the stop, and finally gave out lol.

Do you know what happened to this entire set-up that caused the tube to break it so cleanly between the perches? Tell us more from your source if you know.

Can't happen to my racingfirst $450 cheapos as easy and the same way the link discusses! The tube on mine is NOT aluminum, it is STEEL.

Read the link, there is some of the pirates "private shame" here. BS too.
The fender look's OK. BUT look at the rotor hubs excessive POSITIVE camber.
The tube likely was shear stressed like slamming sideways against a curb with GREAT FORCE.
Anyway that driver lost control of the entire car before the hit on the driver side front.

Just saying bad things always can happen to property and health when a driver losses control.

I seriously can't wait for a review of these. For those of us who just want to go lower, and aren't tracking the car, these look like a great deal.
