About this lower control arm set
The Whiteline KTA255 front offset lower control arm set is a set of alloy arms that come complete with adjustable synthetic elastomer bushings, allowing camber and separate caster to be set for minimal tyre wear and maximum grip. Internal knurling holds the supplied molybdenum disulfide grease for long bushing life, and high-strength ball joints are included.
Whiteline KTA255 for the BMW 1 Series, 3 Series, X1 and Z4 is a set of 4 arms to solve any front-end issues you may have. Due to the high performance of many BMW models, the original rubber front control arm and radius arm bushings tend to take a beating and have a limited service life. In addition, many owners will lower their BMW with a lowering kit or coilovers and may have a front-end geometry issue that needs correcting. For ease of fitment, these alloy arms also come complete with adjustable synthetic elastomer bushings. These facilitate +/- 0.5 deg camber and separate caster. These two key alignment angles can help ensure you get the car set up for minimal tyre wear with maximum grip. The bushings are designed with internal knurling to ensure a reservoir for long-term lubrication with the supplied, extreme pressure molybdenum disulfide (LM) based grease for extended life. High-strength ball joints are included with the arms to make this a fit-and-forget purchase compared to the short service life of the original and cheaper aftermarket alternatives.
Note - Performance - fixed +/-0.5deg camber and caster correction - suits RWD models
