Question Suspension Upgrade

I would like to upgrade my front sway bar and add a rear sway bar as part of a suspension upgrade. I want to avoid lowering my car because I have a seperate set of 16" wheels and tires for the winter and if I lower the car they are most likely going to rub. Anyone have any suggestions as to where I could get the suspension parts I am looking for?

Are your 16" wheels/tires bigger and wider than the TSX 17" wheels and tires? If not, I don't see why they would rub.

The 16" set up is narrower than the stock 17's (cut through the snow to contact the road as opposed to floating on top) but they are also a little taller. I'm not exactly sure if they would rub or not but I don't want to go through the hassle of lowering the car and having a problem. Plus, having snow traction is more important being that I have to make it to work (even if it's only 3-4 months out of the year)

Saw a set for CL7 Accord at AutoSalon which should fit TSX. But its a Japanese site...can't help you there. Maybe you can ask someone on this forum who understands japanese.

www.tohatsu-springs.co.jp


part number TS-003-002 For 55,000 Yen

Front +15%
Rear +30%

whatever they mean by that, either stiffness of diameter. Would make huge difference is they mean diameter.
