My post was not meant to call into question the quality of spl parts. They are the highest quality in so far as design and usability. I would run them if they were legal for competition. I don't know how to make that any more clear.

However, there are some drawbacks to running unsealed spherical joint control arms on a street driven car. I wanted to make sure the op is aware of that and I offered an alternative.

I have yet to hear a single example of SPL parts failing, across the Z snd s chassis community

While in THEORY some balljoint may fail, in practical application of these specific parts for this car...you’re outta pocket

You’re basically cautioning someone against drinking a bottle of water because someone in the world drowned

That's a bit of stretch but ok.
