Hey, i have been talking with TTR and am planning to put in front and rear eibach sway bars? Sound like a good idea or are there better brands in your opnion? I dont plan to drop right now though, maybe in the future. Input on this idea?

I already have a MRZ sturt tower bar and was looking more toward Eibach, I have heard a lot of good stuff about them and also I would like to do the front and back with the same brand!

I'm lost about this like what do you mean if they will ever release this kit? I have been talking with TTR for the last 2 hours about all of this and they have this kit put together to buy. I'm confused why they wouldn't there advertising it? right?

I curious, would a DD car really have much use of a sway bar? I mean...does it justify the price?

Actually they have been shipping the last month. We have sold over 20 sets. We cant keep them on the shelf, so it is best to pre order, and as soon as they show up, we ship them off to you that same day.

Eiback makes great stuff.

There front bar is 29mm hollow bar and is 69% stiffer than the SS/SC front bar(potentially too stiff for some people as a daily driver part, especially if you live where the roads are poor or you have narrow tires)

The rear bar is 25mm hollow and is about 12% softer than the TTR bar, its lighter too. And it comes in any color you want so long as thats RED

Not at all, reread my post, there was no sarcasm or mocking, just the one joe about it only coming in red.

The Eibach bars are the largest set that I know of, and should be a top notch product, but I agree with Maven, that while they will make the car handle great on a flat smooth road, they are too large for the road conditions that I have to deal with in Ohio. With those bars, all the crappy roads would put huge loads on my suspension, and while it probably would not hurt anything, I feel that they would make my car uncomfortable to drive on these crappy roads. I prefer to keep all 4 on the ground at all times, and the progress bar that I have accomplishes that.

If I lived somewhere where it was flat (Arizona) and had good roads, I would definatly want to buy them.

You dont need to lower your car to use ARB's, as a matter of fact its even more reason to want them.
