Chances are that the GSF ones, are the same as the ones Peugeot supply! I would fit a pair and if they wear out too quick, complain!!
Then never use those type again.
The, ' my mate says they're crap! ' line, is how French cars got such a bad press years ago.
Be an individual, go with what you can afford and ignore your mates unless they can show you proof.
GSF wouldn't supply anything they haven't tested, it would be commercial suicide.
Incidently this is a forum run by GSF!!
Don't bite the hand that feeds you![:)]

Amazing how these silly stories get started. GSF supply TRW balljoints which are the same items supplied to many of the European car makers
