I run skinnies and M/T Drags out back and no front sway also. It's not to bad but I do not hit corners like I used to.

i did have to grind , but not change the studs.....o2 camaro ss i agree with you man!!! taking the sway bar off with the regular big tires in front is worse then running skinnies!!! when i put the skinnies on it actually had better handling!

Next, like someone said, we need pics of you pulling the wheels. I can see why your car lifts so much, QA1s, duh.
