APR Roll-Control Sway Bars are engineered to significantly improve cornering performance by reducing vehicle body roll without greatly impacting comfort. Drivers who enjoy a more spirited driving style often encounter excessive body roll, which negatively impacts handling. During cornering, the vehicles body leans to the opposite side, shifting weight primarily to the outside tyres. This uneven distribution reduces grip on the inner tyres, resulting in decreased overall traction and stability.

Features & Benefits:

Enhanced Cornering Performance: Reduces vehicle body roll, improving balance and stability during sharp turns.

Comfort Retained: Optimized for spirited driving without sacrificing daily comfort, offering the perfect blend of performance and ride quality.

Improved Weight Distribution: Minimizes the shift of weight to outer tyres, increasing grip and traction on inner tyres during cornering.

High-Tensile Strength Steel: Constructed from extremely durable materials designed for demanding conditions, ensuring long-lasting performance.

Hollow Bar Design: Reduces weight without compromising strength, enhancing overall vehicle performance.

CNC-Bent Precision: Manufactured from a single bar of steel with no welds, increasing reliability and minimizing the risk of failure.

Forge-Pressed and Quench-Hardened: Bar ends are forge-pressed and heat-treated to achieve maximum strength and durability.

Corrosion-Resistant Finish: Coated with an anti-corrosive red powder coat, ensuring longevity and a sleek, polished appearance.

Increased Bar Diameter: Upgraded to a larger diameter with enhanced wall thickness for improved stiffness and roll resistance.

Adjustable Spring Rate: Offers multiple stiffness settings to customise handling, with substantial increases over the factory sway bars.

Direct Replacement: Easy, plug-and-play installation without the need for modifications.
