What are upgraded sway bars? And should you put them on your GR86?

So you want to improve your GR86's handling huh?

 Upgraded sway bars, also known as stabilizer bars, are thicker and/or made from a stiffer material than the sway bars that come standard on the vehicle. They are designed to provide improved handling and stability by reducing body roll, or leaning, more than the standard sway bars.

Adding upgraded sway bars to a GR86 can improve its performance in several ways. First, it can help to make the vehicle feel more stable and composed when cornering at high speeds. This is because the upgraded sway bars are able to provide even more resistance to body roll, which can help to keep the body of the car more level and reduce the amount of weight transfer that occurs during heavy cornering. This can result in even more predictable handling and better grip, which can make the GR86 feel even more agile and responsive.

Another benefit of upgraded sway bars is that they can help to further reduce tire wear. By minimizing body roll, upgraded sway bars can help to keep the tires more upright and in better contact with the road surface. This can help to distribute the forces acting on the tires more evenly, which can further reduce the amount of wear and tear that the tires experience.

Aftermarket upgraded sway bars can also help to further improve the overall ride comfort of a vehicle. By reducing body roll, upgraded sway bars can help to keep the vehicle more level and reduce the amount of lateral movement that occurs during cornering. This can result in a smoother, more comfortable ride for the driver and passengers. There are many options when choosing aftermarket upgraded sway bars, we provide a wide selection of different company front & rear sway bars as well as kits that include bushings and adjustable sway bar links.
