I'm getting ready to do my rtabs. Found this deal on some Lemforder rtabs and limiters. Does anybody see any issue going with these? I only want to tighten the toe on the back end but the last thing I want is a harsher ride.

The part # doesn't look right on this... You should be looking for either 33326770786 (non-M) or 33326770817 (M3 RTAB - beefier and they're a direct fit).
RMEuropean has non-M for 12.78 x2 or M3 for 21.90 x2, with limiters at 18.75... Probably the cheapest you can get for the full kit.

Just pulled my receipt for the new BMW OEM rtab a purchased 8-2012 and the list price was $28.30 each. The tool to do them, will cast more than the bushings.

I think the one in the ebay is the old part number that was superceded by the 786 one.
I used 33 326 770 817.. Z4M RTABS.
There is some information here from vorshlag:

I see what you are saying. I googled the part number and it comes up as an f'ing "Uro" brand part.Originally Posted by alexandre

Don't buy from Vorshlag though... "Bushings provided may be Lemforder or Meyle branded depending on availability." (Meyle is garbage)

I wouldn't buy factory parts from them but their other products are great. I actually got OEM ones for the RTABs.

The rtabs (with limiters) arrived from OEMbimmerparts. Lightning fast shipping.
They are Lemforders and the part number says 271191 01 009. It also says "Cross No. 33326770786" so I got exactly what I wanted. They look exactly like Derbo's pic above on the right with the small gaps. I think oem's plus limiters is a good balance for my needs.

Ended up pulling the Lemforders plus limiters out and installing Whiteline polys. More road noise but with better tracking and stability, it's worth it in my opinion.

That was quick. My poly bushings just came in the mail today, good to hear they're worth the premium.
