Title: H&R Anti Roll bar 28/24 or 26/22 - Opinions please
Post by: GTI-Ross on April 21, 2014, 04:42:03 pm
Hey guys, Ive used the search function but there is not real comparison between the two.

The car is only used for fast road use and twisty B roads. Would the 28/24 be best for this? - I dont mind a stiff ride as long as its worth the benefits.

Or would the 26/22 combo suffice?

All and any opinions are welcome. Thanks

I'd recommend H&R Front 28mm Rear 24mm. They've made a huge difference in handling since fitted to my Edition 30 so its worth the benefits.

Did you have any other mod like springs or poly bushes? what rough price did you get charged for front and back fitting? thanks

I've got AP coilovers and poly bushes mate, from AWESOME they cost £354.93 inc VAT and 1 of my good friends is a mechanic so he gave me a hand fitting and I got the beers in that night :drinking:
