Rear toe arms options?

Are there any quality durable rear toe arm options aside from Megan racing arms that folks are using?

I've read about Godspeed and RE arms failing quickly, so looking for a stout and durable alternative with quality bushings since megan's won't ship for 3 weeks.

Manzo or Megan Racing. Which seem very close to being the same product (if they are, then hey!)

Also. Probably for the same reason anybody goes to aftermarket rear arms.. the adjustably. And are usually had for not much more than OEM style arms.

Same.

Didn't even consider the other options given the typical heim joints, etc. the others employ. Stiff rubber bushing of the Manzo is more than enough for a street car.

I am running Bimmerworld Adjustable Toe Arms, I figure that they race BMW's so there stuff should be pretty good.

Since I've had the car, I always wore through the inside corners of my rear tires first, despite the alignment being where it was supposed to be.
As soon as I replaced that arm, my tires have worn much more evenly ever since.
It's my belief that the stock toe arms deflect under load, leading to excessive toe in on acceleration, which was what was eating the inner corners of my tires.
