Buellwinkle gave me a contact at Discount/America tires. I called but no one seems to know what I was talking about. I was told someone will call me back but they never did.

Kleemann is the only place to have them for sure, but I think they are out of stock also.

Eibach Anti-Sway Kit

Ok just a dumb question:

Stk Coupe is 20mm/13mm
Eibach is 24mm/22mm

Stiffness increases at the 4th power.
If you do the math that is 207% up front and 820% rear

Should start out by taking out a bunch of lean and then either reduce Understeer (or add Oversteer depending on your starting point). Anyone tried this yet here or are these the first?

I talked to Eibach "Technical Support" today they were not so technical. But they did offer that "Eibach Germany" designed this
and "they" said it worked well.

I can also tell you that our sway bars were designed well We have done extensive testing on our C32 using stock shocks (bilstein HD), H&R springs, and our sway bars. The result is M3-like handling!

Sorry I still can not find the follow up post regarding the price on the sway bar that you guys developed!

BTW, did you guys find a Pagid RS4/4 application for the C32 Brembos?

Is that a guarantee?

...and I hope you are saying these bars can make it handle as well as the E36-M3, not like the E46-M3!

Lol... I'm comparing it to the E46M3, which as you're hinting at does not handle the same as the E30 or E36 (stock). No it's not a guarantee, I can not guarantee handling, as it ultimately depends upon one's driving skill. I'm sure someone out there could manage to crash a Ferrari in a 15 mph turn...

Based on experience, I can tell you that our C32 with H&R springs and our adj sway bars (C32 has Bilstein HD dampeners), handles like an M3. Go drive a w202 and compare it to your w203, MB has made a lot of progress in regards chasis stiffness. When we get calls from customers asking whether we prefer the M3 or the C32, we are actually recommending the C32 now.

Box986:

As mentioned above (thank you DCX Engineer), our sway bars are currently on sale for $549 for the month of September. Please contact me if you need any further help.

Thanks

Ben

fernrod, do you have a coupe or sedan? Why would you get the Evosport kit if you are so happy with the Eibach kit? Is the ride too stiff? Also did you lower your car (H&R, Eibach)?

C230k Coupe
I have a coupe, i think that eibach's kit handle great, but the last time that I checked they are still under developtment, when I got mine I called directly to the factory, and theyy told me that they had two of them so I bought one. so if evosport has some available, and at that price its a bargain compared to renntech, i have no other suspention mods, because in Puerto Rico we have very bad roads(should have bought a ML). Besides the mesuments that the evosport kit has are very good, and buell making roll bars isnt rocket science so for me $900 is pocket rape, but $5something is just naughty !!!
