SuperPro ALOY0030K - lower and upper control arms

There is no listing on the SuperPro website at the moment. They will create this tomorrow. This is how hot off the press this info is.

I have confirmed that NO SPACERS are required for the tension arm/radius arm/upper control arm (as is required by the OEM F8x arm). The joint mounts have been designed specifically for the F2x/F3x chassis.

Additional marketing spiel I have been allowed to share to whet your appetite:

Quote:
Complete Alloy Control Arm Kit – includes Front Radius and Lower Control Arms.
- Both Arms are a complete arm replacement and include SuperPro Bushings and a ball joint
- The Control Arm delivers 1 degree of additional camber
- The Radius Arm is "on car" adjustable
- The Radius Arms allow for up 0.8 Degrees caster increase or decrease
- Kit includes a spanner to adjust the Radius arms
- Suits Caster arm subframe mount width 95mm
- SuperPro have developed and released the Front Arms as a Performance upgrade from the standard OEM style rubber bushings and ball joint.

The new SuperPro arms allow for adjustment to achieve additional caster independently on each side of the vehicle.
This feature is best utilised to correct a slight pull and to enhance directional stability and feel.

The OEM bushings are fairly soft and the SuperPro bushings reduce the arm movement and increase stability under braking, cornering and will increase tyre life.

The SuperPro Alloy Lower Control Arm is an M style arm with a fixed camber increase fitted with a hyme style Bushing to complete the package.

The SuperPro bushings allows full articulation and movement without binding and with no increase in noise, vibration or harshness.

These look like a great alternative to the OEM BMW arms. Thanks for posting, OP!

I'm not sure, but the US rep hasn't responded to my inquiry.

Sorry guys, I think it's AUS only at the moment.

Most AUS manufacturers are having issues with distribution due to COVID-19.

A full set of these 4 arms (new design) have just landed in the UK for me.

Now I just need confirmation of a workshop booking from my go-to suspension gurus.

Leaving aside supply chain delays due to coronavirus, the SuperPro lifetime warranty/support to replace the worn poly bushes in the LCAs has been very good.

Looks like this part is starting to make it's way to US distributors. A search on google for the part number shows at least one reseller offering it for sale for $570 shipped (not sure if I can post a link to the website since they're not a sponsored seller).

I got them last week, they look super nice. It's still cold here so I don't want to lay on frozen pavement. Will probably be April/May before I can give any useful feedback. I would say though they are a much simpler solution vs the M3/M4 arms and tension strut with spacers.
