The Hotchkis rear bar is stiffer than stock.
The car's handling balance is the sum of many factors, a stiffer rear bar doesn't automatically cause oversteer.
With 1100lb. front and 650lb. rear springs and Hotchkis bars (rear full soft) my car understeered a lot. With 700lb. rears and the rear bar in the middle, it still pushes. Going to 800lb. springs in the rear now, may end up higher.
A nice thing about the Hotchkis rear bar is it's adjustable - it's a great way to make a quick and relatively small change to the handling balance.
