Front Sway Bar

Hey guys, I have the Eibach springs and the Stillen Rear Sway Bar. I still get roll in the front while conering. This is driving me crazy. Does anyone have a lead on a front sway bar for the 04 Max? Please help with ideas.

I didn't get them yet, but everyone says yes the Rear Sway Bar does which also makes you more prone to oversteer instead of the "natural" understeer of FWD. the front strut tower brace supposedly adds the understeer needed to even that out. Some say they don't notice any difference. From my inquiries of mechanics, you always want some roll/flex, because something has to give. one guy's bro. had his car so tight and stiff, his windows kept breaking.

I have all three, just installed yesterday. I didn't get to test it out as much as I would like "rain here all day," but the times I was able to I absolutely LOVED it. Car was glued to the road, and now I can't wait for the shocks!

PS- Keep in mind I'm comparing to a car that had NONE of these yesterday morning, but regardless I felt no roll at all from either end
