Hey guys, have a question for those of you with Hotchkis sways installed;

So recently I put front and rear sways on (Tightest setting front and middle setting rear) and noticed immediate improvement in corner with much less body roll, however;

I make the same 1 hour drive down the freeway twice a week, Recently we have had very crappy weather in the mid west, and I've noticed the car feels more vague on center, and definitely more bouncing around in high winds, is this a byproduct of having an overall stiffer (less forging) ride? or is it possible its something on the installation end? im going to check the bolts to tq this weekend, thanks.

also at 64k miles, 50/50 highway city, is it possible my shocks need replaced?

 

Basically all I noticed was a heavier steering. Because of the extra weight a bit of on-center feel is lost but otherwise the steering feel is pretty similar to stock, at least to me.

 

Anti-sway bars can stiffen up the ride slightly, but I could not tell much of a difference in ride quality since I already had Tein Basis on the car when I installed my Hotchkis sways. There is not much to the mounting points. Was everything tight?

 

I had them installed also. I can't tell any difference in stiffness or performance.

 

My stock sedan gets blown around much more than I would expect from past experience with other cars. I don't believe the anti-sway bars are the problem.
