rear sway bars will help you turn corners flater with no body roll...
a rear strut bar will help titen up your chassis...

there are no cons execpt if you have no aftermarket springs and your sway bars are too stiff and they overpower your stock suspension...

I have the Neuspeed upper strut bar & RSX 19mm rear anti-sway bar.

The rear does overpower the front ( [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/IMG] ). In other words, i feel that i have a LOT more control in the rear than the front. Rear never lost control, but the front is still a little iffy at times...

yeah its fine but if you want your sway bars to work at max. effientcy you should also have stiffer springs to complement the stiffer sway bars...

sway bars and your springs work together...right now..if you have stiffer sway bars then they will be overpowering your soft stock springs....

Only having rear sway bar helps alot though...better tires dont hurt either
