What Are the Best Sway Bars for My Setup?
Trying to upgrade my suspension and have these questions.
If more info is needed or you have any other suggestions let me know.
My rims are 19 x 9.5 front with 265s and rears are 20x11 with 295s.
I will not be seriously racing the car but want the best performing bars.
I will most likely have zo6 springs with bilstein sport shocks.
If any other info is needed let me know thanks!

was going to suggest something simple like hotchkiss bars, but after reading this part, Im confused?? what springs and shocks are you going to? and do you just want a streetable feel to the ride and not worry about actual performance? When you say best performing bars, but you are only street driving, might not make sense as the best performing bars might make your teeth chatter while driving on the street.

Just go to the C5 Z06 package
You aren't racing the car, you want a sportier handling package, just go to the Z06 springs, shocks and sway bars.
This is well balanced package, it is about a firm as most people will put up with on the street, and it all works together.
Changing bars, unless they are adjustable, if not matched to the springs, can end up making the car loose or pushy and for your use are pretty much a waste of money. Unless you are racing the car, you don't need anything more than that, despite what you read in the literature of the suspension upgrade companies.
Put on the Z setup as a package, lower the car about an inch, put a serious alignment on it, and a good set of tires, and you will be able to outcorner just about anything on the street short of a Lotus. The car will ride decently and will amaze you and your friends.
