i really dont think those do too much
youd be better off gettin sway bars and upper strur tower braces
the place where the tie bars link arent prone to flexing under load much, so it kinda negates the purpose of em.
sway bars >> lower tie bar

Agreed, why the hell would someone produce a bar that screw up the suspension?

maybe he was thinking of strut tower bars instead of sway bars. strut tower bars are useless more often than not.

you are talking about a lower strut tie bar right?
sway bars will definately make a huge difference, but it doesnt sound like you are talking about them.
