    sway bar setup opinion

    I just installed ie adj 25mm hollow front sway and was going to change the rear to the 22mm rear sway but the installation looked very difficult so I left it alone and was planning on getting it professionally installed, so the setup currently is 25mm front and the rear is 12mm. I kind of prefer the less understeer the car feels. Any major disadvantage to keeping this setup besides a little oversteer? I think if I put on the 22mm rear the understeer will be more than stock since the stock setup was 19mm front 12mm rear. Also the car is on billy sports and h&r sport.

    The larger rear sway will make it oversteer more.

      You have it backward. The thicker rear sway will cause the car to oversteer.
      Leaving only the front 25mm sway and the stock rear will cause the car to understeer.

            Rear will make oversteer. Front will make oversteer too.:)
