tubular k member question

those who have a tubular k member, what does the car " feel" like when driving it? i heard that you can feel sway in the car and it does not feel as solid as with the regular k member.

I've got the BMR too. The only difference is it's squeaky but I imagine I could easily fix that with some lube.

Pro-Fab on my '94 and AJE Racing on my '02.

Both feel solid.
