As I know each sway H&R sway bar has TUV (not only the kits). Am I wrong?

Yes an no. The ''Teilegutachten'' (TÜV) allows the H&R front ARB to be mounted
in conjuction with the stock one at rear. But H&R at rear with stock ARB at front
unfortunately not.
I tested the rear H&R by my own (fitting is much easier, so I did it first).
Cornering was really funny but little bit dangerous. I wouldn't track on the Ring
with this very ''lively'' setup.
If you fit a stiffer bar at the rear only then take care your rear axle is supplied
with some more 'toe in' and never with 'toe out' !!!

I mailed to H&R. Calculating the 26 mm will be no bigger problem if you have the
data for another diameter.
26 mm is around 70 % of the stiffness of an 28 mm bar (both solid).

Thicker rear bar will help you rotate the back on very tight corners but on tracks like Nring I think thicker front (like most manufacturers kits are) is safer at high speed corners !

:happy2: I fully agree.

I have got H&R 28mm Front - 24mm Rear, both set on Hard at the Ring Track and soft on road.

Oh, that's too much toil for me, Laurent. :laugh:
Winter: soft; summer: hard. Almost every weekend there's a slalom.

....And even more too much toil for me. Set and leave them 365 days a year :smiley:

I made it too short to be right. :ashamed:
I meant that hard suits track use when soft suits road use but as I'm lazy too, I end up in winter on ''soft'' as I don't go to the Ring and in summer on ''hard'' as I do.
