My experience with my 4 day old sways is that I think they do make the ride a little louder just because they transmits more of the road into the cabin. The slightly harsher ride and louder noise is a very good trade off for this upgrade. I think most people will get used to any ride quality differences.

Default Thanks

Thanks for the answers/input..
My ride is hard enough as is.. I was going to take the Sway approach - I may have to reconsider -and take another alternative..
Though I would love for my car to be more solid, it depends if you can live with the tradeoffs...

Thanks Again.

install better speakers while you're at it and drown out the road noise! i've been led to believe sways are very worth the tradeoff

you can always try the polyurethane bushing upgrade for your stock sway. It does make a big difference with just $40.00......

Do a search, I have written a review on them....

You just need to take a ride with someone who has them to help you decide. Come to an Atlanta meet
