If you're having trouble getting your alignment back into spec after a round of suspension modifications, a set of aftermarket BMW 1 Series control arms might be just the ticket to get your ride back on track. Camber and caster are improved, and bumpsteer is reduced for improved overall performance. If your ride has more than just a few miles on it, aftermarket BMW 1 Series control arms are an especially good buy since they also offer you the opportunity to rebuild your suspension with better parts. Of course, you'll need to get your ride realigned after installing new control arms, but that's why you're buying them in the first place, right?

Aftermarket control arms not only look tough and make you the envy of all your friends, they also help correct steering and alignment problems that would otherwise exist with stock arms on a lowered or lifted suspension. Bolting on some BMW 1 Series control arms is a relatively easy thing to do, and most control arm sets come with all of the required hardware and new rubber, polyurethane, or even Delrin bushings for maximum BMW 1 Series suspension performance.

Q: What are control arms? Why buy them?
A: Control arms are components utilized in independent suspensions that attach your hubs to the chassis and allow the wheels to move up and down with the proper geometry and alignment. Stock control arms are subject to plenty of use and abuse and have a tendency to bend over time which can affect your handling and alignment. Replacement arms are available to restore safe handling and control and keep you driving safely for years to come. If you are looking to upgrade there are numerous performance options available. Boasting increased strength, light weight construction, upgraded bushings and the ideal design for performance use, these performance control arms will give you a real edge on both the road and track. And with a unique look and finish they will also give your ride a distinctive motorsports aesthetic.
