sway bar question

[BLopes07]

well i have an 06 non sline a4 and i have h&r coils on it and upgraded the stock 17's to 18's. i have it dropped in the back and a little higher in the front. ive been noticing lately at high speeds on the highway as well as in the rain my car sways like a mother. its horrible in the rain and feels like im going to take off. knowing the non sline sway blows will upgrading to the rs4 fix this problem and decrease the sway in my car. i remember when it was all stock i never had this problem so it this common when upgraded suspension and wheels?

appreciate the advice.

I don't think the say bar is the problem here. I'd check alignment and wheel balance.

[BLopes07]

the wheels ive balanced them twice already and there perfect maybe the car is not aligned well with the coils

its your alignment i had the same problem once i installed new shocks and springs... it was raining the day i installed mine and it felt like the back end kept breaking loose

[BLopes07]

ryanworth: whats the cost of the sway bars and is it really that much better on the corners? i have a B7 A4... i find taking corners sometimes a little splashy

It is a night and day difference. It hold so much stronger through turns. I noticed an improvement my first turn at 15mph.

They run about $150 (plus install, unless your DIY). You can probably find better deals somewhere.

The Rs4 sway is a great upgrade .

[Matt@EuropaParts]

It sounds like your alignment is out...and if you've never had it aligned after the suspension work, you should. The RS4 sway is a great upgrade, and it'll help reduce the understeer (http://www.europaparts.com/audi-rs4-rear-sway-bar-kit-22mm.html)

Wanted to double check that these are good for my A4 B7 2.0 T Quattro before i order them. i just want to verify that those are in fact the correct #'2 before i call my local Canadian Audi deal to buy the parts. had to order them all in and not be for my exact model.
