If there is an aftermarket one out there, I don't see why you would spend the extra money on it. The stock ones offer more than enough adjustability.

dont ever step foot it that tire store again
are your tie rods actually bad? or did they just tll you they are bad
heres a simple check
jack your car up put a jack stand underneath
then wiggle the tire side to side if there is play then you need new tie rods and get both inner and outer tie rods if you need them and while you are there check your ball joints wiglle your tire up and down and if there is play then your ball joints are going
but seriosly dont go to that tire shop again

Posted: Tue Mar 30, 2010 10:21 pmThe only reason they should recommend you replace the tie rods is if yours are worn out and causing play in the steering which will throw off toe.

They all offer the same amount of adjustment. These are civics, not 240s.
