SPL seems to have a full set of rear arms for our cars [1]. Their reputation is pretty good from what I've heard. And they're using FK ends, which should make finding consumables pretty easy. Not to mention, they're a quarter of the price of the M235ir kit.

Has anyone run their arms and have some feedback?

I'm especially curious how sturdy their locking mechanism is to keep alignment -- the hex screws that lock the ends just look so tiny. Some of my local tracks require getting on the curbs pretty aggressively, and it's not uncommon to knock out the stock camber and toe bolts, which are much more massive and torqued way higher.

We have sold and install SPL on Many BMW and even Tesla Model 3's lately. No issues with keeping the alignment where they are.

How od you knock out the camber and toe bolts by just bouncing off curbs?
