Sway Bars
Wednesday, June 27, 2007 2:25 AM
so i was looking on turbo tech racing at sway bars and they have the rear Progress for $159.99 and then some other brand for like 169.99 the progress ie 22mm and the other is 1 inch. What is the difference? is one better then the other? Im not looking for the best out there, but something better then stock! Oh and eibach has a set(front and rear) for 319.99! would it be worth extra to get that? or would I just be paying for the name?

I have the Addco front and rear 1" bars, and it made a huge difference in cornering. Turn-ins and lane changes are effortless, and ramps are fun. If your car does not have upgraded shocks/springs go that route first though.

Well, for starters, 22 millimeters = 0.866141732 inches

I'd endorse Addco bars as well -- but any aftermarket bar will do well for you. Some say that if you have a stock front bar already, then adding a Addco rear bar would over-stiffen the rear and unsettle the car. The Progress rear is probably a better match for a stock front bar, otherwise a match set of front and rear Adcco or Progress are good choices.

Addco and Progress are both good sway bars you will like both kits, whichever one you would decide to go with.
