Fuzions aren't bad, but once you get some miles on them, they won't have much stick. I went from Fuzions to Nittos and it was a huge difference. Just something to think about.

No, the two parts perform two different functions. The swaybar controls body roll, the lower control arms controls the movement of the differential. Just like most mods, there is always trade offs.

Not really sure why you'd lose handling ability with those parts. Granted, the relocation brackets could possibly cause that, but I'm not sure to what extent if you're simply driving on twisty roads and not auto-crossing or road racing.
