hey guys,

ive just been fiddling around and while i wait for my rear sway endlinks to get here...
would a lower tie bar make a big enough difference in the rear and overall dynamics for me to go through the trouble of getting one and chucking it on?

I know the rear sway is the best option for handling (and its annoying to drive around without one -> uber understeer, while i wait for new endlinks) but would a tie bar also make a diff?
i havent been able to chuck on my front strut tower bar either (problems with the a/c hose & it rubbing with the strut bar mount) but would it be worth the trouble?
how much handling improvement do they actually make?
ive read alot of great reviews and know how they work and all but just wanna know of any advantages..?
also wondering where i can get one and any good brands ppl recommend?

cheers peoples :)

Unless your LCA bushes are excessively worn ,

a lower tie bar will NOT make a difference to your car.

Full stop.

in that case just save your moneys for other stuff, it probably won't make a big enough difference :)
