Default handling quesiton?

ok, i have the front underbrace bar, i am ordering the rear sway bar, progressive, and i was wondering if i should get a rear sturt tower bar? i remeber seeing them a long time agon online, but do you think that will improve my handeling? if i did both the rear sway and the rear strut, i dont have a font strut cuse i read allot of people say that it dosnt really matter.


i already have lowering springs, and i am getting either KYB shocks or Koni's so that will also improve my handeling.

are there any other things people think i should do to improve my handling?

Rear shock bar shouldn't do much, if anything. They're shocks, not struts so they aren't carrying any load and don't need any extra bracing. It'll do even less than a front strut bar.

There's absolutely no reason to get a rear strut bar... other than looks.
If you feel the need to brace the rear more, look into a C pillar bar. They supposedly help a bit.
I'm confident in saying you'll find the rear sway sufficient.
