Just wondering if these would be a worthwhile suspension mod for someone who just daily drives?

We just put them on one of the BRZ's we have here. We only have a few miles on them so no review yet, but so far we are very happy with them! Here is a DIY thread we made: http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=48718

You bet, ideally these would be beneficial for someone who is lowered more than stock, but these are OEM quality, so would work just fine for a daily driver.

Thanks,
Rick

Yeah, I would not rush out an buy them, but they would be an upgrade over the stock ball joints and tie-rod ends for sure. I figure throw them on before your next alignment

Thanks,

If they are like the EVO RCK, the "roll correction" portion is pretty insignificant. It will only correct for about a 1/2" drop on the EVO. The "bumpsteer correction" part that basically gets overlooked is actually the significant change it offers on the EVO and I would bet it's the same here.

A great part, just not sure why the focus is on roll center correction when the bumpsteer correction is the bigger positive.
