I have a 96 cx hatch and I need some advice on choosing Sway bars. My front lower control arms need to be changed if I want a front sway bar because their is no mounting hole for the bar. I have 2 choices SI front sway bar with SI lower control arms or Ex front sway bar with EX lower control arms. Which one? Its my daily driver and I want better handling. I also want a rear sway bar I know the Si one is only 13 mm and a comptec is 22 mm , ITR is 23 but that rips out even with the kit so no go. One more thing to consider SI lower control arms are stamped steel (hollow) Ex are forged (solid). Less unsprung weight with the Si ones but I am afraid if I get the SI front bar I will need a large rear bar to counter the 26mm SI one then I have to worry about a tear out. I want to lower my car in about 2 weeks with Eibach sport lines and agx struts. I have a rear strut bar and Si Wheels. Any advice I would appreciate. Thanks Adam

Here is another idea that is good

The Si bar idea is good the one piece arms are better IMO.
You can do the Si LCA swap and do a beefier Comptech bar up front and then complement the rear with it.

That seems to work quite well on softer suspensions :)
