Never had experience with that brand. Are they pillow ball? I have driven cars with pillow ball joint tie rod ends and it feels a little more responsive I think he best thing is that you never have to buy boots for the damn things.....

The racing type offer more adjustablity of the steering angle to get bigger drift angles (not needed for a bit of fun and street).



Let me clarify this a bit, there are reallyonly 2kinds



1. Street Tie rod ends (basically stock replacement with heim joints)

2. Racing type offer more steering angle (may need to roll fenders andorget wheel spacers to prevent rubbing)



Now the key part is the rack spacers, you can get both of the above without spacers or with spacers. So it really depends on how hard core of a drifter/racer you are. Either way you get a MUCH firm road to steering feel.
