If your car is anything like the fabia the rear arb is THE best handling mod you can do bar none.

Strut brace and spacers won't compare then, i'd not even consider the other 2, I didn't consider the other when I had the fab.

Spacers and arb are supposed to be great handling mods for the beeza

When I first got the fabia I wondered how a steel bar could be as good as everybody said it was, but it is

awesome gti will sell the rear arb for 117.50 delivered which is the cheapest iv seen.
whittie i may well get the spacers in a couple of weeks but they are going to cost about £80 + then i need to buy longer bolts i think. can never remember whether its hubcentric ones that use longer bolts or not

Last thing I read about them was they aren't quite as good as the jabbasport, i'd say still the best to go for though.

jabba sport are aparently 23mm think and whitline is 20 or 22 cant remember now but the whiteline one is adjustable where as the jabba sport one isnt.
jabba is also alot more expensive according to the thread i was reading just.

The jabba ones are still 200+ new afaik, i've not seen much about the comparison, just the one thread I did read the consensus was the jabba one was better but the whiteline one would do fine in normal use.

yeh this was saying the jabba was better as its thicker but the whiteline one is still very good especially with it being adjustable.
