Default Looking for sway bars

I need better swaybars. What would you use. Also I have extra 100 pounds in the front to push around.

I got the Hotchkis STB/SFC and BMR LCA's and the Hotchkis sway bar set. No doubt about improved. The big sway bar from Hotchkis is hollow so it doesn't add weight. Really does flatten out the body roll. I've read where some folks feel it's too big but I can't see hoe. I don't actually Autocross though and maybe it's there that a finer feel is seen than on street driving.

DON'T USE SWAY BARS TO SUPPORT WEIGHT!

Find stiffer springs!
