Thumbs up Whiteline sway bars

I know a few of you have the sway bars for the Tiburon - but do they make that much difference?

They look to be a similar shape to the stock ones

I already have front and rear strut bars. would the anti-sway bars stiffen things up more than now?

And has anyone experienced any problems after installing them, like with loosing the back end on fast cornering?

Plus, which bars would I need? There seems to be different thicknesses and adjustable/non adjustable.

Thanks

If you can I would advise getting an adjustable one just for the flexibility you'll have in settings. In the snow, if i have my backend too stiff, it'll slip out all the time. but that's kind of half the fun.

I have both front and rear swaybars and I love them. The front one is 24mm thick compared to the stock 18mm one. The rear one is only 1mm thicker then stock but it does make a difference. I've had no problems with mine and would recommend them to anyone who was looking for better handling out of there Tibby. smile.gif

I have the rear adjustable. It made the back end slide out more. Could definately tell the difference. You'll want both.

I had them when I was in the group buy. Waited like a year for them, but then sold them cause I wasn't going to mod the Tib for a long while. It also hit my IC pipe on the passenger side.

It's a very simple system that could be built yourself. That's why I didn't mind selling it.
