[QUOTE="turbology, post: 313090, member: 10223"] How is the strut bars "more or less the same" ????!! Does strut bars modify camber, toe, or caster of a wheel ? NO! If no, how it help "steering responsiveness" :rolleyes: The job of the strut bar is too reduce/maintain chassis flex during centrifugal load , thus providing a more rigid chassis to let suspension do it job. Same thing for struct brace, lower body brace, etc etc. To avoid chassis/body flex. ess530i : In your case, the only way to improve you comfort are 1. reduce your rear struts thickness 2. softer spring/damper :) or yet, ask your passenger to ride a cab. LOL This might sound weird, have you try soft+medium setting for you rear ? Yes, 1 side is softer, the other side is medium (or hard). Giving more flex to your anti-roll bar will help comfort. Front : stiff-stiff Rear: medium-soft ( or hard-soft ) How thick is your rear bar ? how thick is the ori ? [/QUOTE]
