Z51 Sways with F55
I upgraded my previously owned 2000 c5 with z51 sway bars and end links and c6 z06 shocks. Loved it.
But now im contemplating getting the z51 sway bars on my 06 (9500 miles) which has F55 shocks. Will the larger diameter z51 sway bars affect the characteristics of the f55 shocks,and/or ride either in tour or sport mode? Im thinking not, but welcome any feedback on anyone who has this setup.

I did that on my base 2010 coupe with F55 and it did not effect the ride as far as I could tell. It did seem to make the car feel tighter and more stable in turns.

i have ran Z06 sways on my F55 coupe for several years and with the right tires RE11 they are great. On the GY's they made the car nervous on bumpy roads. On my daughter's C5 vert, i run Z06 shocks and sways, also with RE11.
