OTT Rear Sway Bar (Street) (<-- Powell) would be my choice for a street car with occasional track use. Lots of great reviews off of that bar. I actually just recently sold a brand new one I had in my garage and the quality and finish is very good.

I will have to look into the powell bars after work. I plan on autocrossing a couple times this summer and probably the track once or twice. But I will mostly just be street driving. Is the hardcore bar ok for everyday driving?

Is there honestly a big difference between the eibach rear bar and the hardcore bar? I know one is 1 inch and the other is 1 1/2, but will that make a noticable difference? I have never bought sway bars so I have no clue? Lol
getting pedders this month tho and selling my sportlines

I have eibach front and rear, i really love them. A lot of people here like the powell, so I don't know, but for a mostly dd car, I wouldn't lose any sleep over the two, I would say it is almost the same
