Which Sway Bars??
Okay, I can't make up my mind what to get my car for Christmas, Whiteline adjustables or the Hotchkis Tuning Set. If I get the Whitelines I will probably set them at 22mm and the Hotchkis is 1", thats 25.4mm! I'm afraid that 25.4mm will be to much. I've had Hotchkis before and know the quality is great, but I also know Whiteline is good too. ARGH, I'm so torn!!
If I get the Whitelines I will also be getting a Cusco Rear V Bar with the bars. I will get end links later, no matter what bars I get.
All of these product can be reviewed here:

Thanks for the advice.

i would recommend cusco because of their high quality and durability....but Im using whitelines because the cusco's were not available at the time of my purchase several months ago.
the whitelines (adjustable) are great. they just look like crap
out of the box with its cheezy baby blue paint. thought about
sanding the whole thing down and repainting it. hahaha
also consider getting endlinks. im using vivid ones and have not
snapped yet on 22mm setting.

although the hotchkis are 1" think, they are hollow and is actually lighter then either the whiteline or cusco.....i've heard of some great things bout hotchkis, but i believe they are a tad longer, so they must be mounted on the outside of the endlinks, instead of the inside, where the factory, whiteline, and cusco has it
after some research, i'll be hooking myself up w/some cusco f/r swaybar in the near future, seems like the right choice for quality, trouble-free product

I had Cusco sways front (21mm) and rear (22-24), the quality and fit was spot on. The rubber bushings are less prone to squeaking (vs poly). I liked the adjustability in the rear (actually five settings-22,22.5,23,23.5,24).
I have since sold them and put the STi 19mm front and the oe (20mm) rear on as I have shifted my playground from tarmac to gravel and wanted better independent suspension action. This is a very neutral setup (slight hint of oversteer) and seems to work pretty good on tarmac as well.

Although I have Whiteline f/r sway bars, a recent post led me to Perrin performance and you should check them out also.
I might switch out my WL front for the Perrin front. Of course, you can't go wrong with Cusco.

PS if anyone is using the Perrin sbar, please give us a review.
