The stock ones flex like a wet noodle. The new ones are very rigid. Don't think I'll have time to get to the track before winter hits unfortunately to evaluate any differences.

how do the stock ones flex like a wet noodle?
If they're flexing along the Z axis but are meant to brace in the X & Y, why does it matter?

I'm an IT guy by trade and tech nerd by choice.
I like HPDEs, parts of US Hwy 129, NC 28, and the Cherohala Skyway.
I'm also a fan of aural pleasure.

Removed from the car, the best way I can describe it is they twist.

Does it matter, I can't say at this point.
