Deciding on LCA's.

I'm in an indecisive struggle between the three.
Voo doo
Stance
Agency power

Agency powers are the most expensive. But does that mean they're the best?
And voo-doo & stance are very similar.
I know that the stance ones have been out for awhile and a lot of people are riding them.
But voo-doo's just released and it seems like everyone has them pretty hyped up.
There might be threads about this. But I just wanted to know the highest rated out of the 3 alone.
Thanks

I'm lowered and my Tires are rubbing. Mainly because I need more camber.

AP


Voodoo


Stance



If it is JUST for camber correction, SPC are $200 and get the job done. (I have them.) All of the others will increase NVH a little, but I'm not really one to talk about it. Just dropping these pics here.

Ninja edit: I'm not sure if the SPC will give you more camber.

Vodoo and stance to note drop position by near an inch. That means for STs, KWs they're beneficial to add stroke. Now that said what could you have anyhow? Cause if mono tube could like a BC, etc then go with something more conventional like Cusco, white line etc...

I have yonaka. And can drop up to 4 inches on them. I'm not maxed out but plan to be if I can tuck more from camber.
I'm just really sketched out by fender rolling. Especially since our cars are so new.

I only rub on hard bumps and turns at a decent speed.

What about the Buddy Club LCA. I want to flatten my rear axles as much as I could.

If you don't want bling, just function, get the SPC arms. They look like OEM, and are like 1/3rd the price of other options. They also retain the stock bushings, so you don't have increased maintenance of spherical bearings.

I'm lost when it comes to the differences in control arms. Does someone have some literature I can use to educate myself. I'm trying to determine how different brands provide different value.

Anything helps.

Every one of those listed that are not Cusco, Whiteline, or SPL, will not be so good for any type of performance use. If you don't drive the car, however, any of those LCAs will work fine because it doesn't see any type of load.

Not a fan of SPC's? I thought I saw your (or maybe Mike) recommend them in other threads.

to the best of my knowledge, they have never recommended SPC over any of the other three for any reason what-so-ever. whiteline, spl, and cusco are far superior in every way. If simple adjustment is the driving factor behind the purchase, nearly any arm will do.
