Is the handling difference only due to a difference in stiffness? Or is there something else gained by the material or the shape of the h-sport bar?

If it does have other advantages, which h-sport bar would be of equivalent stiffness to the OEM RS4 bar? (That's probably as stiff as I want to go.)

The difference in performance is due strictly to the difference in thickness. However, the H-sport bars are tubular which are lighter in weight. It's a small drop in a big lake, but if you're looking to add performance without the weight, this is certainly one option.

As far as a comparison to the OEM RS4 bar, the standard A4 kit (22823) would probably be the closest.

We've got A4, S4, and RS4's bar's all readily available. Feel free to email if you have other questions.

I have the S4 (only used the rear) and there was no noticeable decrease in ride quality at all.

S4 bar: OEM or H-Sport?

MY S4 Bar is the H-Sport Bar.
