    Thanks mate! I do my best to offer top quality at a competitive price.

    I outsource all cutting, folding, powder coating, machining etc. I assemble & package everything myself in the workshop.

    If I can x10 my turnover, in house CNC machines become worthwhile. I'll keep trying to make it happen

    From my perspective, they don't increase harshness as cornering forces build slowly as the car rolls, springs/bar load up etc. The lower arm also experiences about double the force (in the opposite direction) of an upper arm in double arm setup so in terms of geometry consistency removing rubber in the lower is far more effective.

    There's also reduced suspension binding as the bearing's don't add torsional force when hinging.

    If you don't mind me plugging my own Tones, I've pasted a link. They're aluminium construction with camber adjustment made with a stainless steel jack screw at the wheel end which makes life easy.

    Ground control or Turner "street" plates

    SPC alloy aka Eibach arms with rubber. I think Turner makes some too (think there's even an "ECS" branded one), but you want alloy arm with rubber bushing. Most have solid bearing.

    Fits: All E36 & E46 Non-M, E36 & E46 M3 (excluding E36 hatch). Benefits:- Increases rear camber adjustment (Suspension Tune-ability)- Adjustments made at the wheel end of the arm (practicality)- Provides consistent camber geometry (stability)- Free pivoting spherical bearing (no suspension binding)Note: A beari
