Swaybars and G2 Springs
What swaybars would be the best to run with G2 Springs. I heard the 35mm front swaybar is to big for the G2 spring rate making the car push. Would a 32mm bar be better. What about the rear bar? A 19 sounds to small and and the 21mm sounds to big for the heave spring rate. I'm so confused please help?

Mitch how much negative camber are you useing? Did you have to get more camber to settle down the 35mm swaybar or was it good to when you installed it?

When I first installed it, I was running about -1* and the 19mm rear bar.
The car was a pushing pig, just boiling off the front tires on a track.
I went to a 21mm rear and it helped a BUNCH, but my tire temps still showed it had a push.
I then installed 315s up front and it helped even more and my tire temps began to equalize
I installed G2 lowers and am at -2* negative camber and it feels great with tire temps within 10 degrees across the face of the tire and at each corner.
My tire wear all but stopped.

Wouldn't G2 swaybars be a perfect match for the G2 springs? Wouldn't they want to develop there swaybars around other products that they offer and visa versa? I just orded G2 springs so I am very interested in this topic.

For the holiday season im looking at eihter the G2 springs or the Hotchkis sway bars. I can only get one or the other. Decisions, I might just do the sway bars becasue I dont feel like getting an alignment with swaping springs. And the install is easier. Its cold outside and im lazy right now, springs seems like a better thing to do when it warms up a lil.

I'm a little lost; don't you need the alignment regardless of sway bars once you swap springs?
