Who's RTAB is better? Bimmerworld/Syncro Design/TMS

[old///MFanatic]

Been thinking of buying some monoball RTABs (christmas money) because have heard a lot of good things on how they imporve feel over poly. Unless that's not true?
Anyway, is there a recommendation between these three for some reason? Otherwise looks like Bimmerworld has the best price for the two piece. FCP is Lifetime warranty. TMS is a one piece but can be rebuilt. All look like they use an OEM Lemforder bushing. Which cost about $41pair so not sure the extra for Lifetime Warranty would even be worth while.

Bimmerworld $199 https://www.bimmerworld.com/E46-E36-...aring-Kit.html

Turner sale $225 https://www.turnermotorsport.com/p-5...shings-street/

Synro Design $265 https://www.fcpeuro.com/products/bmw...s-rtab#fitment

Don't forget CMP. 349 AUD which converts to 265 USD. I bought his because he contributes to the e46 world and this forum in general with regularity. Top notch bloke (to steal an aussie term) and good stuff. Have any questions simply email @AussieE46M3 and will get back pretty quickly.

+1 to CMP and everything was oceansize said about them. Plus, their stuff is purple.

I've had the bimmerworld ones in the car for 15 months or so, about 10k miles and have zero complaints with them.

$265 plus international shipping time/delays and cost kinda makes it not worthwhile compared to the others with Free Shipping??

I can’t argue that. Sometimes I go with who I feel really contributes to our community assuming quality is there.

Previous owner put Fall Line Monoball RTABs in the track car. I have no complaints.

CMP is probably the best. I have Turner’s in my car with no complaints. A lot of people run SDW’s as well. I would avoid bimmerworld; they don’t use an actual lemforder bearing, and their housing seems to be hit or miss as far as fitting in the trailing arm.

Cue Obioban:
I remember that he summarised this topic on the old M3 Forum.
I don't recall the details as I did not plan on using them.

I have turners and I’m very happy with them.

I run SDW and CMP (when I have them in stock), no issues with either.

That's a hilarious bug. Are we sure liam821 isn't just fucking with us??
