Default Eibach Sway Bars?

Hey sl, I was just looking through and found that eibachs made sway bars for us. I was just wondering if anyone had any feedback on these from personal experience on their tC or anything else. i know eibach's a pretty popular company when it comes to suspension, so i was thinking these might be a good alternative to the hotchkis' f/r sway set except i'm not sure if these are hollow or solid.

linky

any/all feedback is welcome!

Ya, both ST and Eibach make sets for the tC... but even with the ST ones I don't know anyone that has them. Most people just go with the rear bar or extreme case is Hotchkis.

well did a quick google, and the site that's in the first post seems to be one of the cheapest.

i personally wouldn't run a rear sway bar alone if it was made to work with stiffer front sways...

^ doesn't trd sell just a rear though? the rates for my fronts are fine but I think for the rear, a sway would assist the handling well.

you cannot compare trd to hotchkis/st/any other sway bars sold in sets to each other. The stiffer fronts that they sell are there becuase their rears are even stiffer than the progress/trd. i'm pretty sure their selling of both sways is a result of a lot of r&d that made them conclude that selling as a set rather individually would be a lot safer for the consumer.
