Default Tie-Rod Ends + RS Wheel Carriers

I’m endeavouring to refresh the rear suspension system fully and update my 2015 refreshed front setup.

Currently,
Struts-
Bilstien HD B6 with H+R red springs. Stock mounts
Height-
Near Carrera RS=93TurboS
F120mm
R233
However no direct reference since the factory used different tires but I will check online to see difference.
Wheels
18” RH CUP I
Bushings-
-Front RS-Firmness control arm
-Rear-all stock and tired.
Sway bar-
-Links,Elephant Racing Sperical drops
-Stock bars
Rack-
-993 Support bracket
-Stock tie-Rods (2015)
Engine/Transmission-
RS Mounts


Planned upgrade;

PSS10 RS struts, w/lowering collars,
FVD upper spherical joint mounts,
Prekom RS spring plates w/RS eccentrics,
Prekom RS rear control arm bushings,
Prekom sperical inner and outer tie-rods.

Adjust ride height for a little more tuck but not much.

Questions I have are

1) Did you install RS Style wheel carriers for better geometry/weight reduction in the front? Not really something I want ($/time) to do but am tempted.

2) What tie-Rod ends do you use and more critically if you have solid tie-rods like the prekoms would you do otherwise if given the chance for a do-over?


Im not after a race-car track setup but a super tight street. Hens the RS Frame mounting rubber components except strut towers.


Furthermore, I wouldn’t expect a lot of compliance with the RS Style linear bushing, but for the same money go that route if you have first-hand feedback that the solids Prekoms/Elephant are really aggressive.



note: don’t know how to edit poll-questions.

I went with something pretty similar to what you're thinking.
PSS10s from RUF
Rennline front and rear monoball strut mounts
RUF sway bars (26 and 22mm), Tarrett adjustable sway bar links
Tarett/ERP rear spring plates
Prekom solid inner/outer tie rods
Prekom sport transmission mount
Prekom ball joints
RS motor mounts

Car is still apart for paint, but hopefully I made good choices!
