Is there a point where a stiff(er) [than stock] rear spring negates the need for a rear sway bar? I've got a set of #140 welts that I'd been planning to use with or without a rear sway bar for sporty street car handling and probably some A/X.. but would jumping up to say a #180 spring and no sway bar be a better choice (both seem a bit much?).. or would it be better to use a stock rear sway bar and lighter springs?
