The simplest question needs answered first...

What is your goal?

If you are just replacing CAs and tie rods b/c of age/wear, suggest OE or OEM as they have likely served you well (but do not know your facts like MY, miles, use, etc.). Otherwise, as you are finding out, when you add aftermkt component "A" you usually also have to add component "B", then "C"... and thus how one ends up sufficiently down a serious rabbit hole.

For a vehicle seeing mostly/exclusively street use, adjustable control arms are serious over-kill other than Cars-n-Coffee bragging rights. Ride "feedback" (aka comfort) changes extensively w/ solid thrust bushings - great for track use and extra visits to the chiropractor and dentist on street. If function is following form, you could likely accomplish looks/stance goal w/ a smaller budget taking a different approach.

So, as with most things, the best piece of advice is to begin with the end in mind. What is your goal? Develop a comprehensive plan around it (within your budget as needed in steps). Just because a part is "the best" doesn't mean it's necessarily the best for you.

Good luck
