It would be very much weakened! No matter how good the welding is, it would no longer be a solid bar, but just connected around its circumference.

These tow rings barely look good for the track, not sure why it would be left on for daily driving.

I got mine from PT Tuning...it is expensive but it looks good and you can buy their camera mounting system which is pretty slick as well.

I would second the PT Tuning Tow hooks. I have one that works great as well. They don't need to be modified to fit the bumper which is huge plus
