My outter tie rods are getting worn out and need replacing, does anyone make beefier aftermarket tie-rods, or is OEM the only options right now?

J's tie rods should work. You may/may not have to change over to the civic tie rod ends.

With the way our suspension is set up, extreme lowering makes our tie rods too short. This effect means that we can't get enough camber without sacrificing toe. For those of us who want certain specs, longer tie rods are the answer.

You just doubled over yourself rob. if the tie rods are too short, then you don't want short ones, you want longer ones.
