I need your guys' opinions......

I'm SLOWLY building my rig up on a budget, while I'm up here in Wa state. My lil brother thinks I'm nuts cuz I'm gonna spend $75 on sdori coil spacers for my beast, when I could buy these from JC Whitney http://www.jcwhitney.com/COIL-SPRING...wflag=1#review for $10. I told him that the sdori spacers are a aluminium/polymer mix and will out last these rubber/nylon 1's, until I am able to buy new coils. He thinks that the rubber/nylon 1's will last just as long, if not longer.
Next month, I'll pick up the ball joint spacers from sdori.

I don't see the spacers from JC Whitney as being a safer choice then the sdori's, just a very cheap alternative, which I'm not into. What do you all think?
