|  anti roll bars I was just looking at MSW (motor sport world) website and saw a H&R anti roll bar kit for the Octy front and rear bars for £276.38 delivered that’s 26mm front and 22mm rear. Has anyone heard of H&R and are they any good?

| Re: anti roll bars I've not heard of the kit but id imagine it would give HEAPS of understeer. I've not heard of anyone using a larger diameter front bar than on the rear. In the case of the octy the main goal is to get rid of understeer and keep the car nice and level when cornering. I use a neuspeed 28mm rear arb and the standard front and the handling is so perfectly ballanced. If I was now to upgrade the front it would ruin this.

| Re: anti roll bars Hello. H&R make very good products. As said above tho, i would suggest a stronger rear bar than front. Makes the car handle level while dialing out the cars standard habit of understeer. I have H&R coilovers on my car with and Eibach rear ARB and Golf R32 Front ARB and this combination works very well. (for me anyway  )I hope this helps. Kind Regards Garry
