Front Sway Bar

Hotchkis Sport Suspension products have been developed with strength, reliability, fitment, appearance, and durability all factored into their products to ensure that customers are never left unsatisfied. Suspension components are exposed to not only the elements, but also constant ever changing forces that will push the limits of any performance component to its breaking point if not built to a superior quality. This is especially true in vehicles with lowered suspension. Make sure your suspension is ready for any abuse thrown its way with Hotchkis Performance Sway Bars.

Performance sway bars allow you to take corners aggressively while still keeping the wheels firmly planted and reducing body roll, all without reducing overall ride quality. Hotchkis sway bars feature powder coated tubular steel construction for maximum durability and stiffness. Every kit includes the essential components needed for an easy installation and to ensure you get the most from your sway bars.

Features:

• Eliminate Unwanted Body Roll
• Dramatically Improves Handling And Stability

Suspension Techniques Performance Front & Rear Sway Bar Set for BMW E10 2002

Enhance the handling and stability of your BMW E10 2002 with the Suspension Techniques Performance Front & Rear Sway Bar Set. Carefully engineered to reduce body roll and enhance cornering performance, this set provides improved balance without sacrificing ride quality. Crafted with durable materials and precision engineering, these sway bars are designed to elevate your driving experience.

Sway bars transmit cornering forces from the outside wheels to the inside wheels, helping to keep the vehicle flat during cornering. This, in turn, reduces body roll and improves the driver's cornering confidence. OEM rubber sway bar bushings are designed with comfort in mind, allowing the sway bar to articulate while permitting additional movement, leading to less-than-ideal bar retention and causes unnecessary body roll.

Powerflex polyurethane sway bar bushings are firmer than factory rubber bushings, reducing body roll and keeping sway bars in check. Polyurethane bushings won't slop around like OEM bushings, allowing sway bars to function at their fullest potential.

Poweflex is a leading manufacturer of aftermarket suspension bushings. Using state of the art design and manufacturing, all replacement bushings are engineered to out-perform and out-last the ones that came in the car. Each line of bushings is meticulously tested and then re-tested to ensure perfect fitment and enduring quality through the life of the vehicle. A full lifetime warranty backs every one of their products and demonstrates the level of confidence and commitment Powerflex has to their customers.

• 52% stiffer than the factory E90/E92 M3 bar. 42% stiffer than the E93 M3 bar!
• 27mm straight across (not a tapered center like the E93 M3 factory bar)
• Solid core, not hollow like the stock bars (better at resisting twist)
• Forged, non-adjustable steel ends
• Highest tensile steel strength available

The H&R for the E9X M3 is the best anti-roll bar option for the E9X M3. Don't be let down by the "small" size compared to the factory sway bar sizes - there are some big differences! We've had our in-house suspension engineers run the math and the H&R swaybar is over 52% stiffer than the factory E90/E92 M3 bar and even over 42% stiffer than the E93 M3 sway bar upgrade. There are several reasons for this - the stock sway bars are hollow (for lighter weight) and will twist more than the solid H&R bar. Also, the E93 M3 bar is often called a 28mm bar but it actually tapers down in the center to 24mm which greatly reduces its effectiveness. So if you're looking for a serious sway bar upgrade, the H&R is clearly the way to go. Note: to maintain the handling balance of the car, we recommend only using the front bar with the matching H&R rear bar or heavily revised racing suspension.
