Meyle Tie Rod Assembly Ok for Replacement?

So my tie rods can't be adjusted they seem to be seized. Going to replace the full assembly. Just wondering if Meyle is a good decent aftermarket brand to go with?

I was looking on fcpeuro site and they are about half the price of the OEM bmw part.

or should I get the Meyle rods from FCP euro and get the ends in HD from ECS?

The ecs link doesn't show the xi as fitment. I'm going to look into this as I've never changed mine.

I did do my end links last year with Meyle HD and they are solid

Many people are saying their Meyle HD tie rods only lasted about 6 months . Was aslo going to purchase the Meyle's but now I'm leaning toward OEM.
