Smile Getting new tie rods. Anyone ever hear of Rein?

Apparently REIN is a OEM part for our cars on fcpeuro. Very cheap too! $60 for both left and right!!

Has anyone has any experience with these? Fcp gives a 2 year warranty and says they're OEM so why not?

Stick with Lemforder. They are the OEM provider with a lot of the suspension parts. I have them for tie rods. I did mine a few months back. No issues .

Yes thank you. That's what I was going to do but coco says rein and lemforder are both OEM? Reins are a lot cheaper.... Just wonder if anyone has used the brand.

I replaced my tie rod assemblies with Rein as well from FCPeuro. No issues so far in 4 months and really sharpened the steering of the 335i. Before hand my tie rod assemblies were so worn that they had no responsiveness for the first inch or so of steering wheel input. Rest assured, they have lifetime warranty. Since I live in Australia, they said they will pay for return shipping in store credit plus replace the Rein for Genuine BMWs if ever the Reins wear out again, which would likely be another 5 years or so. Which by that time, my car would be likely sold.

Wait you said "if the Reins ever wear out again"? As in you had a previous pair that wore out?

They give lifetime warranty, so you can't lose either way. Its a win-win on your part since they will pay for return shipping if you say the Reins failed as part of the reason.
