In terms of loss of ride quality do to a suspension mod, sways are on the bottom of that list right next to upper strut bar.

Springs will affect your ride quality the most, sways will barely affect your ride quality. On a real bumpy road you will notice a difference, or if you find alternating bumps setup just right you'll get a good bumpy ride. Other than than get the sways! They are totally worth every penny IMO.

you cant ask anyone if they will rub unless you get the value of the offset first. as for sway bars reducing ride quality...well...let me tell you that inflating your tires to a higher PSI would probably affect ride quality more than the sways would.
