The next step in tuning your car's handling - after shocks/springs and camber plates - should be a set of swaybars. Using larger front and rear sway bars will give your car better/quicker turn-in and less bodyroll in corners. These bars replace the existing sway bars on the car for a clean and simple upgrade with very little downside. Sway bars should be matched with your springs/shocks to maintain a proper handling balance. In some cases only a front or rear bar is needed to positively change the balance and make the car more neutral. We sell sway bar kits from H&R, Racing Dynamics, OE BMW upgrades, and even some of our own designs. Swaybars are sold with new bushings. New links and other hardware are strongly recommended.
If the sway bar links are broken or worn, the system doesn't work as it should. Replace your end links with one from URO and get all the performance characteristics back.
As a bushing deteriorates, so does the functionality of the sway bar. With more play, the anti-roll stiffness the sway bar provides decreases, allowing more body roll and poor handling.
