Yep, I'll do that once I get other suspension parts the way I want them. My car
seems to sit and handle pretty symmetrically, but a corner balance (when I get to that point) will tell for sure.
On my first test drive of about 50 miles including a favorite stretch of 2nd/3rd gear twisties, the Eibach sway bars made an impressive difference. Some of the test ride included medium-rough sections of road but nothing severely rough. At least in these conditions, the ride seemed no rougher than with the stock bars.
Besides dramatically reducing body roll, there is a feel that stiffer sway bars impart to a car that is difficult to describe. More "solid," less independence of the suspension, much quicker transition into turns and between left and right turns.
I understand that the sway bars are only one piece of the puzzle, and that the suspension all works together. That said, the Eibach kit seems to work quite well on a stock SC.
