Madness MINI Cooper S 22mm Adjustable Rear Sway Bar

I selected the Mini-Madness Rear Sway Bar over all of the others out there because I believe that this bar offers far more than any of the others. It is forged, meaning that I will get the most response and feel possible from any one of the 3 settings available. I can set it on soft or medium stiffness depending on the road conditions in my area and when I take my MC to the track I can set it on the stiffest setting for incredible feel and sensitivity. If you want only the best Rear Sway Bar on your Mini then I recommend that you purchase the Mini-Madness Adjustable Rear Sway bar.

This is a nice sway bar that keeps the car much more level in the turns. I have yet to really push it as I am currently working my brakes but you can already feel the difference. Word of caution. If you are trying to install this yourself, you might want to re-think it. Two people will make it a lot easier to do as will a proper lift.

This is my first experience tinkering with the suspension of any car. I had the sway bar installed, with the links in the middle position, and also within the week replaced the run flats with 205R16's on the stock wheels. As one might expect both the ride and handling changed. I've been slowly testing the changes the handling. The car is at stage 2, it is my daily driver and I don't race or autocross. Here is my experience so far. There is less under steer. Under hard cornering I don't have to add as much steering input to keep turning. The car begins to turn quicker than before. There is less body roll than before. There is more grip on the road and the ride is more comfortable. The ride comfort is due to the tires. The better grip seem to be a combination of the tires and the sway bar. Everything else is due to the sway bar. Some day I will sort out what is happening at the limits of cornering but not right now. You will feel the effects of the sway bar in the very first corner that you take. This mod is to the suspension what the smaller pulley is to the engine, lots of bang for the buck. ex997guy

Dear George, I have bought several items from your excellent store, including the 22mm madness adjustable rear sway bar. I installed it about a year ago, and a really like the improved handling
