While steel rods are a more common choice for connecting rods, some road racers opt for aluminum rods to reduce the weight of their rotating components. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBenefits of our High-Performance Aluminum Connecting Rods for Race Engines include enhanced acceleration, vibration dampening, higher RPM capability, battle-tested durability, prolonged engine life, and efficient heat dissipation. These rods are a premium choice, though it is important to note they may have a slightly shorter lifespan and come at a higher cost. The suitability of an aluminum rod depends on your engine's needs, budget, and maintenance schedule. Consider that these rods usually align with the lifespan of the aluminum piston, requiring simultaneous replacements during piston maintenance. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFitment Notes:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cem\u003eNOT\u003c\/em\u003e compatible with factory OEM Pistons\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBMW M50 Models\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBMW E34 525i\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBMW E36 320i \/ 325i\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBMW M52 Models\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBMW E36 323i \/ 328i\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBMW E39 523i \/ 528i\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBMW Z3 2.8\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBMW M54 Models\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBMW E46 325i \/ 330i\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBMW E39 525i \/ 530i\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBMW E60 525i \/ 530i\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBMW E83 X3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBMW Z4 2.5i \/ 3.0i\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBMW S50 Models\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eBMW E36 M3 (Euro)\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBMW S52 Models\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBMW E36 M3 (US, 1996-1999)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBMW Z3 M Roadster \/ Coupe (US)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy Choose CP Carrillo?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOne of motorsport’s most respected piston and rod manufacturers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePrecision CNC machining and premium forged materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRigorous testing and quality control\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTrusted by professional engine builders worldwide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy Buy from R44 Performance?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eR44 Performance supplies premium BMW performance and engine-building components trusted by enthusiasts worldwide.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBMW specialists\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenuine CP Carrillo products\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFast UK \u0026amp; worldwide shipping\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExpert product support\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eUpgrade your BMW M50 \/ M52 \/ M54 \/ S50 build with the BMW M50 M52 S50 S52 Aluminum Connecting Rod Set, Pro-Xtreme — available now from R44 Performance.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"CP Carrillo","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57549782253950,"sku":"CAR-CRS-M50-135-XT-A","price":1123.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0280\/7568\/8011\/files\/BMW-Pro-Xtreme-Aluminum-Rods-by-Carrillo-S50-S52.webp?v=1781532087","url":"https:\/\/r44performance.com\/products\/cp-carrillo-connecting-rod-set-bmw-m50-m52-s50-s52-pro-xtreme-aluminum","provider":"R44 Performance","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
