Nothing between them. I went for the BMR's as the shipping choice was $100 less

BMR also makes bolt in ones I believe. I'm pretty sure both Spohn and BMR are about the same in quality. I guess it depends on who you want to give your money to.

Kandied, check out the website for yourself at www.bmrfabrication.com in case you haven't already

Both designs look pretty good if you ask me. I really like the idea that they have installed pictures. And yes, I think the weld in would more than likely be better. And I've heard the shipping is cheaper for BMR than Spohn. Bottom line, you can't go wrong with either one of them. It still comes down to which ones you want, lol. I've heard so many good things about Spohn and he is a sponser so I'm sure many will say to get his, but don't let anyone decide for you. I was going to get Spohn SFCs but I decided to go with Kenny Brown instead. It just comes down to personal preference.

Whoa. ZZ42Fast, I can understand why you went with BMR then, lol. Shipping was probably more than the part.

I actually double and triple checked with Steve and he wouldn't budge so I went with Thunder Racing and saved me a lot of dosh It's expensive getting parts shipped over. The brackets ended up being a sizeable mod when cost is considered.... sucks being over here

It ain't much better out here in the Colonies. We get whacked real good for shipping as well and then there's our worthless dollar to consider.

They're both ....

.... excellent quality and construction, but I'm going to have to get the BMR bolt-ins since I 'll have two different rear ends, with different ratios for track or street, and I just want to have to buy one set.
