Overview

This kit improves steering for drifting by removing the OEM Ackerman effect, keeping your front wheels parallel for extended sideways driving and saving front tires. In stock configuration, E30 models have approximately 20 degrees on the outer side and 30 degrees on the inner side at full lock; this kit provides an upgrade to 50-55 degrees. The kit is available for BMW E30, E36, E36 M3, Z3, and Z3M models.
Show original supplier description
It effectively eliminates the OEM Ackerman effect, ensuring your front wheels remain parallel, which allows for prolonged drifts and reduces front tire wear. Standard configurations, like those on E30 models, offer around 20 degrees of outer and 30 degrees of inner wheel angle at full lock. This kit significantly increases that to between 50 and 55 degrees, more than doubling the original capability. The kit includes two complete control arms with all ball joints, two knuckle plates with adapting parts, and two complete tie rod ends. The included tie rod ends feature E36 replacement inner tie rods, high-strength bronze race ball joints, and T6 aluminum extensions. All necessary hardware, with minimum Grade 8 bolts, is also provided. The arms are 50mm longer on each side, with the exception of the E46 application, which gains 25mm per side. The kit features an orange powdercoat finish. Installation involves removing old control arms and tie rods, bolting in the new kit, and then testing the ride. This Super Angle Kit is compatible with BMW E30, E36, E36 M3, Z3, and Z3M models. The specific kit for the E46 has a different arm length specification.
