Comptech sways/Toyo Proxes 4 REVIEW

okay so i've had about 500 miles on the toyos before i put the swaya on and i could never really take full advantage of them in the twisties until i got the sways, i never really broke loose with these tires before the sway mod cause i couldnt push the car hard enuff into the turns, but with the sways on i can push the car alot faster through the corners and the tires do sometimes slide out, u can really feel the weight of this car when pushing it.
def think with the t1-s the car will hold its ground alot better.
but in the straight line the toyos are great off the line, are quiet, and very smooth. so for an all season tire i cant complain.

i still want my car to stick better in the twisties though, maybe i should get some upper and lower tie bars??

cliffnotes: sways help the handling ALOT but @ the end of the day this is still a 3500 pound fwd car.

I think the CL really needs some negative camber in the front to get a good bite into corners.

Darrin how much did you pay for the sways I can find eibach cheapest on ebay for $313, still seems expensive to me...is it worth it..I got the h&r drop and new shocks, but the body roll is still there. Darrin in your opinion are the sways worth $313+$75=$388?

If you want to save get comptech sways they are easier to find used and cheaper.

Eibach are great sways but they cost more.
