Stiff Front Sway Bar Thoughts

If I already feel the back slipping, will the sways make it better or worse? Whats the general consensus for spirited street driving? Currently using Michelin Ps4s 265/35/19 f, 305/30/19

Regardless of what type of driving you're doing the answer is "front bar only". For the street, the Hotchkis might be a bit overkill. The Eibach front bar maybe the way to go.

A front bar should help bring an oversteery car back to neutral.

Yeah, you do get a little bit of waddle from the front bar on uneven/bumpy roads with the Hotchkis. I notice it, but I am not taking it off... LOL
