Now that you've had your car a while with just the Comptech springs (no sways) are you satisfied with the performance handling and ride comfort or will you be adding sways soon?

Also, am I right with this:

Springs lower the car and will eliminate some of the dive when braking and some of the sag when accelerating, but will not eliminate any of the sway or roll when cornering.

Sway bars will increase the ride stiffness, consequently reducing ride comfort and lateral roll when cornering.

Yes, the only thing though is our stock tires suck and I want new ones. I will probably get those and shocks before the sways.

Yes and no. It did not eliminate the sway or roll but it did make it a 100% better.

Correct.

Thanks for the reply. I really don't want a super stiff ride, I like the comfort. The sway and roll isn't all that bad IMO. What I'd really like is to eliminate the dive and sag, along with making the car look the way it should look, with less clearance in the fender wells.
