Rear Sway Bar on NYC condition?

Hi! I'm thinking of getting a Anti-Roll sway bar or Rear sway bar for
96 GLE. I live in NYC. Most of my driving are the FDR, LIE and local
streets. I read on the .org that handling really improves when you have rear
sway bar. I have the FSB already installed by the previous owner.

I have tried turning while driving 20 to 30 mph on street and it feels like
my front end is about to kiss the pavement. I was wondering if the Rear
Sway Bar will correct that problem?


There's a couple of brand of RSB that's made for the Max. Stillen, Progress, Addco, etc. Anyone have any advice which one fits best under my driving condition. Most of the time i'm racing middle age men and granny on pothole highway going 50mph. According to you guys, that's not even consider racing.

Let me know which one is the best bang for the buck. I'm planning to install it myself. Any advice will be appreciate. Thanks

Max96GLE 122,xxx.

when I was on stock springs the fstb (courtesy) and rsb (stillen) were great handling improvements, even on NYC streets.

of course, things have changed a little since then...

If you want, I will sell my Addco RSB for $100. It is painted black for protection.
