Finally upgraded my stock SS anti-roll bars to a set of Addco bars: 32mm solid front, 22mm solid rear, with urethane center and end-link bushings, of course. You hardly notice the difference at low to moderate speeds; the ride quality seems unaffected. But crank in some steering input, and the suspension reacts like it's on amphetamines: MUCH quicker turn-in, and much more responsive to steering transitions. Best $249 I've spent on suspension upgrades so far. (Got them at that price, plus around $30 shipping, from Shox.com, who are good, reliable folks and have the best prices on shocks, springs and bars I've seen.) Thanks to all you guys who gave good advice on anti-roll bar sizing; I agree that a 35mm/25mm solid bar combination might have been a little too much at this point.
