so i need to replace my control arms and might as well replace my tie rods when i'm down there . what's the best brand of control arms and tie rods to put in?

I'd go with Meyle for both. Decent quality stuff and reasonably priced.

i'm running fatter e36 m3 control arms. they don't cost too much more, and the fcabs are solid too instead of sectioned.

E36 M3 control arms are 2x (or more) the cost of E30 control arms.

you can always buy apa/uro

made in china, but cheap as hell. Like 50 bucks a control arm or cheaper

But that stuff is garbage whereas Meyle is actually decent.

jeebus christ, you're right i just checked. i definitely don't feel like i paid near that much. wtf.

edit: maybe mine are 325 fcas...i kind of forget. but list price is for sure still more than i paid.
