Sway Bar

Hey Peep's,

I'm thinking about putting SI sway bars on my 08 EX do you think it'll be worth it they cost about $60.00 each.

Re: Sway Bar

Buy some springs and lower it too. Sway bars really compliment lowered cars and youll feel a pretty big difference. Just sway bars though might not change the feel of the car much.

Re: Sway Bar

I'm not thinking of lowering the car with all the pot holes here in the city of Los Angeles that could be a big mistake. My thinking is that new sway bars might help it in cornering. The stock SI isn't lowered.

Re: Sway Bar

Keep your stock front bar and grab the si's rear... Very little reason to go with a 27mm front bar on a FWD car.
