Spohn tubular front control arms, should I go adjustable rod ends or not???

Hey guys, I am loking at getting some Spohn tubular front a arms in the near future here and was wondering which ones I should get. The two that I am interested in are the regular



Or the rod end adjustable



What are the advantages of each? I like to have adjustablilty, but I am pretty sure that I can get enough adjustability out of some of those upper strut plates. Any thoughts/suggestions/opinions are welcome.

daily driver/ street strip car, stay away from rod ends as they wear out fast

for a track car get them, or if you want some good handling

Well, I am building it to be a daily driver, but I also will be drag racing it as well as auto x.

the derlin bushings you can get with them would be just great for what you wanted, when i contacted spohn about some lcas and panhard bar, i was told to stay away from rod ends on a daily driver
