I do not have standard nonM E82 suspension geometry as I have F82 M4 front uprights. The nonM tie rods are possibly too short.

Question was if anyone knew if the non-M tie rods would fit, meaning allow me to zero the toe, when used with the M upright and non-M steering rack. I have 1M tie rods in reserve on my bench, but they may be too long as well. Trying to avoid paying for an alignment twice once I get it eyeballed.

And to be clear, you were able to zero your toe without issue with your non-M tie rods?

ornicar I will add that they completely replace the factory bracket and are compatible with the stock 135i brembo bolts.

However, if the rack you bought did not come with inner and outer tie rods you'll be just fine by using your stock ones! They have enough range to be made longer. I am using my stock inner tie rods still and I just swapped in m3 front spindles. I think I had to thread my tie rods out by 7 full turns or so and I run a little toe out. Still a few threads left for the outer tie rod to clamp on to. |

M3 inner tie rod is longer. Difference is not just in the spindle.

You're replying to someone asking if they can use stock tie rods with M3 spindles. Your reply infers that you WONT be able to use the stock inner tie rod because the M3 spindle has a different (more outboard) pickup point.
That is not the case. The stock inner tie rod has enough length to give you the ~7 turns you need to get your toe back to 0. So you don't NEED M3 inner tie rods with M3 spindles. |
