Hope you didn't buy a front one...since there isn't one available that is bigger than stock

Default Completely loaded with crap eh? Is that an option now?

Sounds like an episode of Jackass or something...Do they just back a dump truck full of cow manure up to your car and, LET ER RIP?

Default Hands down a rear sway bar is the best $ you can spend on an S4

Even if you could find a front I wouldn't touch it. A 22 mm rear will make the car handle like a driver's car (slight over steer and all kinds of flexibility to make the car do what ever you want). Stock plows like a wet sponge. All the people who have lowered their cars and have not changed the rear roll stiffness are taking it in the mouth.

Default Actually I've heard of swapping in a *smaller* front...

I *think* it was TAP who put in a stock A4 front bar...
Should make the front push less, but roll a little more,
maybe?
