If it the same car I am thinking about, it got hammered pretty damn hard lol. Too bad, it looked pretty clean

I remember hearing something about very sway bars being thicker then stock. Is this true? I can't find any info on the matter.

[e30austin]

The front ones are, correct. In fact, I even have one on my black 'vert parts car. It can be yours...if the price is right!

[DrJosh]

So the rears aren't? :(

[e30austin]

IIRC, the rears are not.

iX and m3 rears are. By like 1mm or something. I have a cab front sway and a iX rear on my car. Honestly, I wish I had gone with thicker bars. But I did upgrade to M3 mounts on the front (weld in) kinda pain in the booty to do. But they are much more effective that way. Like 150% or something (ball park) - I think twoJs is the expert on the subject since he engineered a set of bars for his senior (engineering college) project. He's local too.

[DrJosh]

That is rather dissapointing but the conclusion I expected. I am interested in doing the M3 tabs though. I was hoping I could do a semi cheap OEM upgrade with a bit of perfrormace fun. Back on my A4 I swapped out the stock 16mm rear sway for the RS4 22mm bar and it made a worlds difference and for only 115 total including shipping and bushings. I was hoping there would be something that didnt cost a few hundred as well as needing welding.

[Wishno87]

Do a vert bar and M3 tabs. It will be like having a 25mm front bar. I already have M3 links in my car and I will be installing my vert bar when I switch engines again.

[5Toes]

lol is there a howto on the m3 tabs??
