▶ Vehicle Fitments
The SPL Parts Titanium Series Front Tension Rods for the 2014-2023 BMW M3 (F80) are high-performance suspension components designed to enhance steering responsiveness and alignment precision. Crafted from lightweight titanium, these tension rods allow for extensive front caster adjustment, enabling optimal turn-in response and improved handling characteristics. The inclusion of FK spherical bearings replaces the stock rubber bushings, providing a smoother, more direct steering feel and reducing mushiness. Additionally, stainless steel spacers allow for tuning anti-dive geometry, further refining the vehicle's stability and cornering performance. Engineered for durability and maximum performance, these tension rods are ideal for enthusiasts seeking precise alignment and improved driving dynamics.
Designed specifically for the F80 M3 model years, these tension rods are compatible with vehicles equipped with the stock or modified suspension setups. They serve as direct replacements for the factory components, offering increased adjustability and responsiveness. Suitable for street and track use, they help optimize handling under aggressive driving conditions. Installation involves replacing the original tension rods with these bolt-on components, with no additional modifications required. The kit includes the titanium tension rods, FK spherical bearings, and stainless steel spacers, providing a comprehensive upgrade for serious drivers aiming to improve steering feel and alignment accuracy.

Overview
Overview
SPL Parts TITANIUM Series Tension Rods (TR) for the 2016-2023 BMW M2 (F87) provide a wide range of front caster adjustment, allowing precise alignment for optimal turn-in response and to compensate for variances between left and right caster. Low-friction, smooth articulating FK Spherical Bearings eliminate the stock mushy rubber bushing to provide a more responsive steering feel. Anti dive geometry can also be tuned with the use of our stainless steel spacers
Our parts are engineered for maximum performance. Billet Aluminum alloy 2024 hex rods are precision CNC machined and gun-drilled to reduce unsprung weight while maintaining high strength and stiffness. Our exclusive 360 degree Rotating Clamp design allows for easy access to quickly and precisely locking in your desired alignment settings. Blue Anodized Titanium hardware shaves even more unsprung weight from the arms and offers superior strength.
FK Bearings Rod Ends are manufactured in Connecticut. The JMX is an upgraded harden rod end used for superior added strength. Featuring a Teflon liner to provide quiet operation, low friction, smooth articulation and eliminates bushing deflection under load. The PTFE liner is chemically bonded to the inner diameter of the race. The liner offers a very high load carrying capacity and has greatly increased dynamic wear characteristics. The operating temperatures of the liner ranges from -65? to 325? F, offering robust reliability for both street and track use.
Made in the USA.
