Opinions needed...
 
If you were about to buy a replacement subframe for your Camaro..

With all thing equal as far as price, fitment and suspension options, would you rather buy a square tube subframe, or a lighter, stronger and more aesthetically pleasing round tube subframe??

Round..........

DSE Hydraform?

I actually think the square tube frame is better looking, but I would proably go with the round tube frame if there was actual evidence that it performed better, and was lighter and stronger.

Square tube. I actually like square tube with some round tube secondary members.

Forget the subframe and go "full frame" I am biased 'cause I assemble them, but the Schwartz Performance full tubular frame deserves some consideration as well.

The only round tube I know of is the TCI and I am not a big fan of it. Art Morrison all the way. And for the record, we had Prodigy out this weekend at the Foose show in Atlanta, onlookers are still awed when they see Corvette suspension (which the Art Morrison uses). So as for more aesthetically pleasing...................

Ahh Yes, I shouldn't have said more aesthetically pleasing.

As that is open for interpretation, thanks for the feedback guys:thumbsup:

I actually think my square tube frame is pretty damn good looking.

Right now I have both in house. I do have to be honest ....everyone likes the Art Morrison because of looks.

I know DSE's is very high quality , Arts also , with the front clips back on these cars it will be hard to notice the DSE unit over a stock front sub .
