Tie bars, strut tower bars...What to choose?
What's the difference in brands? Some sell for big $. Some are cheap. But they all seem to do exactly the same thing. The reason I ask is that I'm going to be getting the rear lower tie bar and a rear strut tower bar soon and I need some suggestions.
What have you guys had good results with?

Get the ones that arent adjustable like Neuspeeds, they will be stiffer.. Alot of time your paying for the name tho.

you really do pay for the name, its like looking at the price of the comptech or the dc stuff compared to something like apc or tenzo.

i had some off the wall brand and they are ok IMO. the only thing left on my car is the rear tie bar (yeah the one underneath). I paid for all 3 of them half the price 90civiclxryder paid for one

Well I went with all DC Sports stuff. I got the rear lower tie bar, rear upper and front upper. I liked the looks of the stuff. Hey even I like a little flair(aka "rice") on my ride.....

I guess if you stand on them they would. Once they're attached I don't see how they would bend out of shape. Its not like I race Auto-X. I just wanted some extra stiffness....and the looks... I have the rear lower and front upper on now with my KONI Sports & Eibach Sportlines. So far so good..... I'll let you all know how I like it in a few days.
