Looking at buying ARBs
« on: February 01, 2014, 03:55:23 pm »
I am looking into getting myself some uprated anti-roll bars. I want H&R ideally, but I am open to suggestions. I am wondering whether I can just grab the rear one by itself, or should I really be upgrading both of them?

Lots of people on here have done just the rear bar. Alex at Aks is running a group buy on the H&R bars. Many have also gone for Eibachs 23mm at the rear.

My preference was to fit a matched pair. I have an Eibach  f+r kit, no issues and works well on road and track.
I think many have done just the rear and I dare say there's preferred choice when retaining the front OE part so as to maintain good dynamics.

Gone but not forgotten :-)

I've thought about this myself has it made much difference?

Where is the actual group buy located, on this forum?
