RSB Options?

I hate to ask a noob question, but since can't search, sorry in advance. What RSB options are available? I know both Stillen and Cattman offer pieces; does anyone else? Quality of any/all? Any install stories (horror or otherwise)? Any insight is appreciated.

Stillen is more $$ than others - I have it, I like it.
Cattman, Progress, and Addco are all pretty much the same bar, and cost less than Stillen.

All of them work well, and all are easy to install, though I think Stillen is a little bit easiER to install. The only downside to cattman/addco/progress is if not adjusted correctly you will get a loud bang over big bumps until you adjust it right. With Stillen the only problem for some people (not for me) is figuring out how the bracket goes over the suspension arm..... Really, you can't go wrong with any of 'em.

So, did that help you out not at all?

Irish,

Yeah, a bit. What I'm looking for is build quality. The bar to LCA mounting bracket on the Stillen seems a bit more substanital than the mounting brackets for the others. If the others are of comparable quality and cost less, then it becomes a matter of $$$. If the better one costs a bit more, I have no problem spending the little bit extra for it.

Main reason for looking into RSB is going to a 235/45/17 tire on stock wheels and have read multiple posts reinforcing it's a good idea to invest in one.

Thanks for the quick feedback.
