    Um. I pretty sure anyone would prefer to have a cage if you're talking about safety. It really depends on how convenient/ dd-able you want your car to be.

      Yeah, it's not really what you prefer but more, what is more suited to what you are trying to do with the car...

                I'm going to be dd-ing mine with a full cage. But you can bet I'll have shit tons of padding. I'm also an idiot.

                    Even the dual density padding isn't ideal for street use.

                    And yes, you're an idiot. We all knew that when you posted pics of 15x9 Rotas.

                        :)

                        If it keeps me safer on the street, and still safer on the track then thats fine by me.

                              even with all the padding, if your head hits the cage you're done.

                              the words daily driver and cage dont belong together. if it was a weekend car, then a half cage. but if you're dead set on a cage, get a bolt in half cage and racing seats that are high enough that your head wont go backwards and hit the top of the cage. potentially.
