Which Sways would you recommend?

I have Hotchkis and like them just fine for the track. They also include new bushings and mounts with zerk fittings so you can grease them easily as aftermarket sway bar bushings tend to squeak after time, especially if you live in a cold climate like me.
You may not have that issue as much, but I had a set of Eibach sway bars on my last car and the squeaked like crazy. I finally had to switch to waterproof grease to get them to shut up.

I went with Eibach in the 1 front 2 rear setting because I believe that the Hotchkis sways would increase understeer since the front is stiffer than the rear.
