Default advice on strut braces

Please if anyone has any advice on strut braces could they tell me about good brands, what to look for, and what to avoid. Any info would be a great help.
Thanks
(mostly just looking at a front, not looking at rears atm)

Whiteline and Cusco both have good reputations. All depends on how much you are willing to spend.

Genuine OEM STi if you can find one. Rear brace is usually harder to find too.

OEM sti is one of the only ones that will clear a large TMIC on the GC

Ultrex HD ones can clear some sizable TMIC's too. I've got a Hyperflow on mine and it clears by a few mm.

Realistically you won't notice any difference with it on, in saying that I still fitted one front and rear just for the sake of it
