The above is indeed true...as priced for Kijiji and all its antics...

I'd love to see it go to a forum member...PM me if you want to chat about it.

What is the exact tire size? I am wanting to do the Ultimate Street Car challenge in 2015 but the run flats will not get it done. I understand the 18" wheels but what size tires front and rear are you putting on those wheels?

Does it yield more than negligible improvements (or any improvements at all) to go with either LG or T1 sway bars on our carbon editions, as a lone mod for 3-5 HPDE days/year on 18" wheels/slicks?

Yes, I'm running a LG bar on my car now. If you are going to run slicks you are going to find that the stock suspension is too soft and that your car is going to experience excessive body roll. The two best handling improvements for track use that I made to my car were to replace the sway bar and then to switch to Moton coilovers.

Did you swap both front AND rear bars??
Why did you go with LG over, say Hotchkis, T1 or another brand as an example?

Yes, you run matching pairs of bars, so both front and rear. I actually started off with Pfadt heavy rate bars and broke the front ones twice. After doing some research amongst local track guys that I know the consensus was that LG bars were well liked and worked great so I decided to go that route.
