Default what swaybars

im looking at getting new sway bars but unsure which ones to get. I want better off the line traction/weight transfer and i know a thicker rear bar will help keep it going strait in the launch. I also do know if i get a bigger bar for the front it will hurt weight transfer(but dont know how much). Taking off the front sway bar is out of the question. So what bars would be good for me or should i just get new end links/bushings for my stock bars. Maybe a little bigger rear bar than stock, dont know... Been looking at the st bars,sam's bars and addco.. Not sure if i should spend the extra cash for hollow bars and try to save some weight while im at it even if its a few pounds..

I remember reading that solid bars are barely stiffer than hollow bars... so you'll want to stay away from solid bars like BMR. I dont know what your WS6 comes with (hollow or solid or how big?) so I dont know if a 1LE would be an improvement, but I hear they can be had for cheap, not sure if their hollow or not either.

Drive mine everyday without a front swaybar & skinny front tires on curvy roads (road racers would say DAMN at the roads around here). No handling problems, only braking issues due to the skinny tires.
