    32 (or 35) front.
    19 (or 21) rear.

    The '93 1LE front (32 hollow) and rear (21 solid) bars are pretty reasonably priced, and available through several sources including the board sponsors.

    Some people say a 21 rear is too big though. (stock is 17.) The 21 is a bit stiff for cornering, and it would be considered small for drag racing.

    A 35 solid front is quite a bit heavier than a 32 hollow front, if you are thinking of drag racing, the weight is a consideration. I think road racers prefer the 35, especially in the v8 cars.

      The Eibach springs are stiffer, and the shocks are also "stiffer" too. Both of these will control roll a lot over stock. If that isn't enough, go with a 32mm front and 19mm rear bar.

      Its hard to recommend anything for you if I dont know what you do with the car.

      Front bar options are:
      28mm
      30mm
      32mm
      35mm

      Rear bar options are:
      15mm
      17mm
      19mm
      21mm
      25mm

      21mm bar in the rear is most certainly *as stiff* as I'd ever go. I'd swap between 32/35 bars up front depending on the course or duty... likely going with a 32 up front for street duty.

        the car is purely a street car with rare trips to drag strip. where the front bar wont make much difference cause it wont be on..

        as for now id like to just get the front bar. and save the rear for another time..

        thanks
