Well they should offer an aluminum and spherical option... especially when some of us are interseted in extracting maximum performance. I mean correcting geometry is a bigger pro/gain than anything else for the most part... but going back to something that potentially heavier and binding (polyurethane) is not cool. As mmdb said though we COULD make/buy alternatively sphericals as he and I already have... but why not have a product already with that err..

And why should it be automatically 'expensive', that sounds stupid. If Nissan could bring both on a factory car, an aftermarket one should be available with little to no difference equally.

At the end of the day all we're getting is the effort of someone else who figured out how to move these points and then cast/forge/put together magically with their choice of metal/material. A. Because alot of us dont have the knowledge B. Don't have the connections.

That being said, just because its aluminum doesnt mean that it should cost automatically more on the price. Think about it... The s13 and z32 spindles are not that different just different material and fork vs bushing type. They are overall the same shit.
