Pillow ball mounts for our vehicles do not make that huge of a difference because of the suspension setup. Unlike the MacPherson Strut Design, our cars have a double wishbone and not that much stress is placed on the strut mounts.

None what so ever over stock, its not a functioning part of the suspension becides just a solid mounting point for the spring and shock. Youll only gain by ppl thinking your running coil overs when you lift your hood.
