#15500, "Front and Rear tie bar questions"




          

I'm thinking about buying some of the lower tie bars...do these things actually work well?? Do they affect clearance?? Any problems with them??

Just to make sure....they just help the car with body roll right..helps keep the car on the ground...sorry about my stupidity, I would just like to help control w/o lowering my car yet.

they help reduce the flexing of the chasis. it won't affect you clearance

I have the rear one. I can't really tell a difference, but it looks cool:+ Here is a pic. It was really a bitch to get the bolts off! I just took it with me when I got my alignment done and let them put it on!

I have the two made by Hurricane_GS. Look in the product reviews on the main page and you'll see my review for them. I have a stock rs with no rear swaybar and stock suspension and I noticed a considerable difference.

The aluminum "ebay" bars do not help. They are an inferior product. Mine on the other hand are very noticable. I have been told that many times. emoji

What about the aluminum lower tie bars from Pilot? Are they any good?

If you want pretty (which I don't know why cause you can't see the underside of your car) get the ebay ones. If you want something that actually works get the ones from Glenn (hurricane_gs). Read my review. 100% stock suspension on an RS. I noticed an ENORMOUS difference! And they only took about 30 minutes to put on.
