Hi All

Has anyone fitted a set of after market sway bars/anti-roll bars?

I am looking at a set of H&Rs.

Do they make and huge difference in the handling department and will you loose out on comfort?

Sways are great, just make sure they are adjustable (front and rear).

Too many manufacturers will just bolt together some bars and call them sways. Aftermarket sways should really be designed with the suspension of the car in mind.

If you are just getting sways (w/o changing or getting matching suspension upgrades) then you must get adjustable sways so that you are able to dial-in the right setting for your particular suspension setup.
