Strano sways review Short version: Awesome!
I've had Strano sways on a previous 4th Gen but I replaced all the suspension at one time so it was hard to say what improvement just the sways made over stock ones. My latest 4th Gen already had Strano springs and Koni shocks but stock sway bars. The car rode and handled well but if I really pushed it in corners it felt as if I was going to be thrown out of the car. There is a 270 degree freeway on-ramp in particular that showed the cars weakness. The final 90 degrees was reducing radius and I had to hold on tight traveling 35 or faster. All the body lean didnt inspire confidence. Finally ordered Sam's non-adj sways and last weekend I installed them. Holy hell, its like a different car now. That same corner at 35 now is a breeze, stayed flat and composed the whole way around. It handles so much better I've been looking at the local autocross schedule and may give that a shot soon. I know this review doesnt have before and after track times w/video but if you're like me and just enjoy the feeling of a well handling car you cant go wrong with these. If you're on the fence, get them!
