Get Strano's swaybars. They are adjustable and very easy to install (if you are not dumb and tried to install the rear one upside down for 2 hours like me). All the needed hardware was there and there is even a video on how to install them. They made a huge difference in my car which is a pony package, so I already had sways. Your car will feel totally different (in a good way).

Keep in mind that this is an older version of the bars, however, they use almost the exact same hardware in the exact same way, so there really aren't any surprises. The only odd thing in my install was that on the rear bars, for some reason, where the bushings connect to the body (not the axle), the bolts had to go on in the same direction. For clarification, the way they should have gone is [----| |----], but they went on as [----| [----|. A local mechanic at a Tuffy that I'm friends with assured me that there was no difference and that it was fine, and I checked back under a few days ago to make sure everything was tight, and there were no problems at all.

I have to completely disagree, as will anyone who's upgraded bars (even if they are on stock tires). And new bars (mine at least) come with all new urethane bushings.

I have an adj steeda front and rear sway bar. Love them.
However i just purchased LCA with LCA relo brackets to help the traction. I just found out that I may have to grind the LCA relo bracket so I can retain my steeda rear sway bar. Not real comfortable doing this to make them fit.
Sam/Others-- help!! Any tips as I would like to retain my steeda rear sway bar.
