Tires will make the biggest difference, and no they're not more expensive than a rear sway bar + labour to install.

You can pick up a set of used decent tires with rims for around $500 right here on Revscene classifieds.

The swaybar will not improve your cornering speed very much if you're still rolling on hard as rock 15" all season tires. It will change the balance of your car, but the cornering speed will not differ by much with no grip from the tires.

Dafuq? No rear swaybars at all?

What kind of car is it? I've seen a few domestics that have PLASTIC swaybars but I've never heard of no swaybars at all lol. :badpokerface:


I stripped a nut installing my rear swaybar so I drove around for a month with no rear swaybar. I cannot imagine driving a car with no rear sways all the time.It SUCKED! If I was you I would look for a rear swaybar solution or just give up. Springs will take away some body roll but they can't replace the role of a fully functioning swaybar

My civic doesn't come with any sway bars :pokerface:
