I would recommend t1r forged DSS from speedstar (what I have) but I would also consider the 100$ megan ones from teknotik.

Brands do not matter too much as ive never heard of the spacers failing.

Make sure you get the ones that are "Two Piece" !!!!!

This allows you to install them without having to take out any balljoints or anything because you can just pull the shafts out enough to put each half of the spacer in and your done.

I have full piece ones and had to remove ball joings on the rear control arms to move the axles far enough out to get them in

Im running ebay ones with around 400 hp for around a year if that helps ya at all haha. As long as the bolts are a good grade it shouldnt matter to be honest

running t1r race. I dunno if brands matter...I was just concerned with the pieces being balanced properly and holding the power (mostly the bolts) make sure you run good hardware and double check the bolts after a couple days of driving.
