I would go with the Eibach units also, that is a high quality item and a reasonable price.

I have a steeda front tubular sway bar in front with a stock rear. The steeda front made a big improvement in cornering. The only drawback is the sway bar is larger in diameter than the stock unit. I had a rubbing issue with my 18 inch rims. The passenger side rim was rubbing at the very edge against the sway bar during full left turns. I called Steeda and they said that was typical with larger than stock rims. They suggested a steering limiter. I just got 1/4 wheel spacers for the front and that worked fine.

is it better to get a Front and Rear sway bar? for cornering? cause my car comes with just a front one, the back one looks completly stock. so would my car handle better if i got a rear one too?

I got mine from a company called Progress because Eibach screwed me over. Long story. But I am very happy with the ones I have.

addco makes some decent stuff too , steeda stuff is over priced IMO... but if you the addco ones are same or only a little cheaper the eibachs get my vote if the $$ is right .......keep in mind all 3 are better than stock ....
