Talking has anyone used these swaybars ??

so i was wondering has anyone used these eibach sway bars ??

http://www.bavauto.com/fland.asp?par...%2074%203%2020

they seem to be the only ones that make them for our trucks specificly 4.8's !!

they seem to be pricey $580 then s+h considering i only paid like $500 for my dinan sway bars on the m5 and that was with install from stealer

anyway im most likely gonna get these just wanted to know if anyone has / had them !!

thnx neil

Thumbs up

I had the swaybar in my X5 for about 2 years now, is a Huge Improvement over the stock ones, also probably one the thickest swaybar i've seen. you will feel alot more road than before, my X5 is lowered on H&R spring also. feel free to ask me any questions.

I had this Swaybar about 5 yrs, pretty good for every corner for the 1st 3 years, value to buy it ........ however, the spring of my X5 seems like get old and not perfect when cornering right now

Since my X5 hasn't lowered down, SiLvx5, would you mind tell me the performance and what you feel afterward you installed HR spring

or u suggest I change back the normal spring.

i had alot of fun driving in the X5, this swaybar is worth every penny. The X5 is much more responsive when cornering, when you switch lanes, the car barely had any body roll even at a high speed. My X5 is lowered on H&R i had camber plate as well as camber kit. it doesnt feel like you are driving a 6000+ pound SAV, it drives like a 3 series.
