Default Rear Sway Bar Advice

I've read about every post about rear sway bars and I'm between the 20mm S4 and the 22mm RS4. The price difference doesn't matter. I'm leaning towards the 20mm S4 sway because I have the non-sport suspension and I'm afraid the RS4 might be a little to stiff for it. I don't plan on upgrading any other components in the suspension for a while. Basically, I want to make the car handle more neutral without messing up the suspension balance.

Honestly, get neither. Spend a bit more and get the H-sport sway bar kit (F+R), you won't regret it!

Isn't that a little hefty for the non-sport suspension?

Default No, not at all! Your car will benefit a lot from it. It will change your car's handling...

dramatically for the better. The rear bar is also adjustable so that you can make it stiffer.

The kit was design just for that regardless of OEM sport or non sport suspension.

I would even opt out for the S4 kit.

Default agreed - h--sport s4 front+rear

I wish I did this mod earlier - huge difference in handling street+track.

One of the first mods on every car I'll do now is sways - did those on my Z4 too.
