Are there any advantages of installing sway bars on a street car?
Does it improve handling? |

I really like a rear stock bar on a street car (with the front also of course)
I don't lift tires in the corner on the street.. and even if it did I wouldn't worry about loosing acceleration since I'm not racing on the street. Steve, your experience with the rear sway bar sounds like it may have been installed upside down and contacting the trunk floor causing infinite spring rate... I've seen that once and it made the car undriveable... but with it installed to clearance the trunk, the rear sway bar helps the handling. |
