Front Strut and Rear Anti Sway Bar ... Do they work?

I just read that front strut bar is mainly for looks... Is this the same for the rear anti-sway bar? I've heard that it feels like a brand new car with the tighter handling that they provide? All hype or is it true, they do affect your cars handling...?

Thanks

Bignutts, you gotta make up your mind, dude. You say the exact opposite in the other post about this by Supafly.

lol i think he's being sarcastic... anyways Front strut bar with rear sway bar is the best you're gonna get as far as tie bars go. I wouldn't bother getting a rear strut bar. And if they made front sway bars I'd get that too along with the strut bar.

Alright I was just told by this kid in my class (college) with his Volkwagon having *** that the strut bar is welded onto the firewall in all the new models of most cars... and basically strut bars are for show only... I had no response other than, well I dont have a new car so I need to spend the extra money to have a cool car like yours buddy. lol

Well, wouldnt the strut bars go on the undercarriage of the car??? Why would that be for show? And if it was ontop, physically they probably affect the performance of the car about <----> that much.

Anyone else?

FSTB does a little bit. Rear sway bar does ALOT. I'd get both. Both are very worthy mods for the price they cost. FSTB should only be $40-$75.
