A Way Motor Works Exclusive!
Have an R55, R56, R57, R58, or R59 and want to stiffen your chassis to improve handling? Now available in RED! NM Engineering’s Upper Tie-Bar or also known as a strut tower brace is designed to reinforce the already stellar MINI Cooper chassis. Installation reduces fore and aft, as well as side-to-side chassis flex during spirited driving, which helps to eliminate unwanted geometry/alignment change. This results in better steering response and better handling.
# Superb Engineering & Quality Strong mounting plates made from 6061-T6
