Default Lower wishbone & Track rod end replacement?

Hi

I am planning on changing the lower wishbones & track rod ends as I think the ball joints are starting to wear.

Question is, what is the best replacement part? what options are there? or are OEM parts the best replacement?

Rich

In case anyone is interested I got suggestions from e36coupe.co.uk

They suggested e30 lowerwishbones. They have all metal ball joints which last longer & provide a better feel of the road. The e36 ball joints are partly rubber, this provides a more comfortable experience but reduces the feel of the road & life of the ball joints.

Full details here (you may need to sign up to read)
