I replaced the torn boots on my control arms. Energy Suspension (I think) makes polyurethane covers, I saw them at the local import parts house. I bought mine from BMP (they are a BMW tuner/part supplier). They offer two sizes, I think the ball joint size is the proper size. They offer a couple of kits, I bought the 4 boot kit (it comes with a tube of CV joint grease) in anticipation that they might split, one did. The joints were a little loose when I put the new boots on, but considering the price of new arms I thought I would wait and see. After a year I haven't noticed any wear unusual on the tires indicating a probem with the ball joints (inner and outer edges of the tire wearing faster than the center. Also, the steering feels the same as ever, so I'm not too worried yet!
