    Sway bars for 98

    How much would the suspension(handling) improve if I were to install the Hotchkis adjustable sway bars? Since its adjustable, what setting would be the best for everyday street driving?

    Front 100% stiffer than Corolla Stock.
    Rear 219%, 268%, 330% Stiffer than Corolla Stock.

    Good luck!! I'm still waiting on Hotchkis. About six weeks ago I placed the order and every week they tell me these bars are still be developed and tested. The guys at Hotchkis did say these bars will be night and day difference over stock. I'm starting to wonder if it's worth the wait. ('01 Rolla LE)

    vpower dropships so the wait would be just as long.. and david told me HotChicks sucks because they offer a cheaper price at their website than to their dealers, so just buy them direct if u want to get them.

    Vamp's still waiting on his, too.

    regardless, if they're still being developed, then it'll take awhile from anywhere you go.

    I don't need these right away so I can wait several more months. I heard TRD makes a rear sway.
