The Super Now Lateral Control Link Rods have the pillow joints which are much stiffer than the stock rubber bushings and give an increased feeling to the handling of the vehicle. The main advantage of the Super Now Lateral Control Link Rods is the gained adjustability of the rear wheels. After installing, the vehicle will now be able to adjust the toe in and toe out to whatever setting you desire.

The SuperNow lat control links are adjustable versions of the stock link. All they do is allow rear toe adjustment (especially after lowering the car). They're only really effective after the pivot bushing is replaced by a spherical bearing. BTW, The stock control links have ball joints on both ends, not rubber.

nothing in the world is really worth it, its just what you want. I bought them cause I liked them and i needed toe adjustment cause of my ride height...............and they're purple. In the end its all about what you want and if your willing to buy it, there is always AWR who is located in the states and build rediculously sweet products. The supernow links do their job so that makes them worth it, AWR's do their job. as long as its functional I dont see no problem

Last I checked there is no rubber in the OEM rods.... But everything else is correct!
