I don't wanna have good stability on only one end! Plus less shipping maybe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plenty of people put their hand up, then no one actually puts their hand in their pocket...I'm doing the non adjustables for $195 and the adjustables for $215 guys - same price front and rear.

Rear bar is not necessary for street duty with low to medium grip tyres. It stiffen the rear up, but the down side of this is that the car will be a bit more "oversteery". Even though the rear end may break out a little easier, it will be much more predictable and controlable when it does. Bang for your buck, you can't go past some firmer sway bars, nothing will effect your handling as much for the money. Also, make sre the person doing the wheel alignment really knows what they are on about, we fix so many cars here with a wheel alignment and nothing else its not funny.
