Default Lower control arms....what to get?

I'm having some last minute indicisions about what lower control arms i'm going to get. I know i'm going to get some adjustable uppers so i can play with my pinion angle.

I was going to get some Lower lift bars, but since i'm getting slicks i'm thinking that lift bars may be overkill and i don't much feel like ripping out my lower torque boxes from the hard launches.

My question is will lift bars be fine? What do you guys think i should get? I was going to buy some today, but i realized that i should look a little more into what i'm buying so i don't regret anything later.

Does anyone have a control arm success story. I don't have quad shocks so i really need to eliminate the HORRIBLE wheel hop/control arm bushing deflection i have right now.
Thanks,
