Sway bars
I have C-6 ZO-6 sway bars 31mm front and 28mm rear.
Should I go for the C-6 ZR1 sway bars 33mm front and 31mm rear??
Or is it so little difference that I wouldn't feel it.
The ZR1 sway bars are $220 so they are well priced, but if I cannot
feel the difference I should put my money in to something else.
What do you think??? Thanks.
Oh, and for those that don't know me I have a 2000 vette.

You need a 325 or wider rear tire to properly use C6Z or ZR1 sway bars, if not your *** end will be all over the place in hard turns, be careful. Thats why most guys use the C6 Z51 bars!

325x19 and thinking of 345's. I am sure I mentioned
that I run C-6 ZO-6 sway bars , now. I was just not sure the
ZR-1 sway bar will be worth the trouble. I am trying to do my
research............

Do you plan on tracking the car? If not I think the c6z should do the job. If anything think about changing to c5z springs. That should help give the car a little more stability

run the 1/4 mile and I am not sure a heavier bar on the front
would be good ( I guess I could pull the front sway bar off when
I drag--alot of guys around here do that). I am not convinced
that a couple of mm will make a difference (between the 2 bars--
ZO6 and ZR1)
