Stock Suspension with H&R anti roll bars

Post by Fanatic » Mon May 29, 2017 12:47 pm

So I have been thinking... :o

I have the stock suspension (non m sport) and truth is that it is quite firm and handles well. But I would like to reduce body roll.

What are your thoughts on adding some H&R ARB which are 27mm front and 21mm rear vs 24mm and 18mm respectively?

Do you think it is worth it? Would it pair ok with the stock suspension?

Thanks in advance.

I have those bars and to start with they were used with quite tired M Sport suspension. It helped but they pair much better with stiffer springs as now I'm on the B12 kit. Get them as it will be an improvement though.

B12 are Bilstein B8 paired with Eibach springs right? How are you liking the whole setup? I have heard that it is quite a harsh ride.

It's harsh over broken tarmac but fine over general bumps.
