Just wondering if the $60 difference per side for the S4 ones is worth it.

Default Everywhere on the page that you linked says "tie rod end"

I'm not sure what you're looking at.

Default If it comes from an S4, it's better!

:-P Rob's post the other day is the first I've seen regarding this swap. The metal one is bound to have less play...if Rob says it makes a noticeable difference, I would fork out the money and give it a shot.

Personally, I'd go with the S4 parts. It's still not a whole lot of money. Just get the best part and don't worry about it. 8-)
