So to approximate the no longer available Evosport bars..

So to approximate the no longer available Evosport bars..

One would need to use:

The Eibach front bars

H&R rear bars.


""The Eibach and Evosport front bars are 41.6% stiffer than C32. ""

""The Evosport and H&R rear bars are 98.9% stiffer than C32. ""

Has anyone tried the Eibach front bars and H&R rear bars on a C32?

I don't think any one has tried that combination on a C32. The drawback is that you have to buy all for bars because they are sold as pairs.
Then I guess then just put on the H&R rear bars and leave the front bar stock, that should reduce the understeer and increase turn-in.

Sway Bars

Lynn-
What size opening is on a 2007 C230 SS front stabilizer bar. Tire rack sells the H&R's as follows: one for a 10mm opening and one for a 12mm opening.
I assume you mean the bolt sizes. At one time the C32 was the only C using the 12mm bolts for the sway bar to endlink connection. I think that may have changed so that all Sport package cars have the larger bolts. But I'm not certain that is the case. If I'm not too late in responding, you should get the bars with 12 mm holes and buy C32 endlinks. Heavy sway bars have a way of twisting the lighter endlinks. The Sport package cars may have the heavier endlinks now, too, but again I'm not sure.
