tie rod spacers & Villains tie rod ends

[kyral]

Anyone have any insight on the quality of villains parts? mainly the inner tie rods and outer tie rod ends?
trying to get more angle and don't know if I should go with villains inners, megan inner, isr inners (all three have built in spacers for more angle)
or just go with rack spacers

Can’t say I’ve had any experience with villains tie rods, but I am currently running isr inner and outer with the spacer and they have held up quiet well. Tracked a few times. I’ve extended my LCA and the inners have decent length for adjustment. But I believe if you have crazy extended LCA you prob wanna go with maxima inners if I’m not mistaken

I agree that built-in spacers are better than the rings.

Of those 3 brands, I'd probably choose Megan. I had a set of their TC Rods, and the joints on them were perfect even after 5 years of dailying and tracking. So I'd assume the joint on their inner (only part that can really wear out) is of the same quality.

Have you considered a bolt-on rack spacer? That would give you the extra travel without sacrificing thread engagement. I ran one for that exact reason before upgrading to knuckles.

Ive got an S13 and everyones saying im going to have to cut the new tie rods since stock is 11inches and the aftermarket rods with spacers are 13 inches
