i can bend those by breathing on them. u might want to save up for stiffer bars that actually dont flex.

really they looked like good quality to me. I thought Titanium was strong, unlike Aluminium. I thought it went Aluminium, Steel, Titanium? So i guess i will save up for OEM Type R Strut Bars or another brand.

Its all relative to the pivot/flex points of the bar itself. you can have a middle section that has absolutely no flex, but where they attach to the plates will still provide a nasty flexing point.

basically, after the strut bars are installed, if u put weight in the middle of the bar, and it gives under the pressure, its a waste of money and added weight.

i've seen 25 dollar bars be WAYYYY stiffer than 150 dollar "big name" bars.

best example was the late 90's DC sports strut bars. those flexed with the wind

but the holes added to the stiffness
