Inner Tie Rods Explained – What They Do and Why They Matter

If you're building a drift car or serious track weapon, you've probably already looked into suspension, coilovers, and angle kits. But one part that often gets overlooked—and shouldn’t—is the inner tie rod. These small but vital components play a huge role in steering accuracy, feedback, and reliability under angle.

What Does an Inner Tie Rod Actually Do?

Inner tie rods connect your steering rack to the outer tie rods, transferring motion from the steering wheel to the wheels. When they flex or fail, you get vague, unpredictable steering—something you absolutely don’t want mid-drift.

Stock vs. SLR Inner Tie Rods

Factory tie rods were never designed to handle drifting forces or extended steering angle. That’s why our SLRspeed inner tie rods are overbuilt from the ground up:

  • Stronger materials for max durability under load
  • Longer threads for precise toe settings
  • Engineered to pair with high-angle steering kits

Compatible with Your Drift Build

We offer inner tie rods for most drift chassis—including E30, E36, and E46. If you don’t see your car listed, contact us—chances are we can build it with no extra charge.

Why Upgrading Matters

In drifting, you're often at full lock, with heavy lateral loads pushing against the steering system. A failure here isn’t just inconvenient—it can ruin your car. Our inner tie rods are made to withstand that kind of abuse, with direct-fit strength and better adjustability than OEM.
