It will add the stiffness to the chassis, reduce the twist of the chassis during cornering.
I think sway bars has more direct improvement on the handling, but these are the additives when you feel its still not enough
Me and pinguhk going to try out and let you guys know how it feels
Cos mine has DD (Dynamic drive) which can not fit the sway bars
and pinguhk has the H&R sway bars already.

pinguhk, can you explain what is the purpose of these bars?
I guess they add more stiffness to the suspension, but can you give some more details? Are you tracking the car, do these bars have other effects on the suspension in street use?
do you have more details from other people that have these bars? (not on E60s, I see you are looking for such members here)
cheers

I dont know any 1 got these but 1 other member in HK are going to get these soon and I will be too.
I have 4 bar on my Honda stepwgn and when turning corner the car body has far less roll.
these dont cost much about $430us for all 3 bars include install in HK
I will let you know after installing them.

no, this is a completely different animal.
the sway bars move with the suspension, but reduce body roll in corners. you can see them in the pic - the thin black bars attached with two black brackets to the bottom of the car.
the bars here add stability and stiffness to the subframes as I see it.
hopefully pinguhk will add more colour.![Whistling](https://5series.net/forums/images/smilies/imported/whistling.gif)

OT: bbd, something in your signature caught my attention:
"1987 MB 260E Taxi edition interior"
what was that actually? was it inspired by a german cab, or something else?
Was it a W124, Mr. Sacco's masterpiece? I guess I will love that car forever.
