Sway Bar Diameters

The increase in tire wear from the Hotcthkis bar is from cornering harder. There is no increase in tire wear for normal driving.

In the top chart for rear sways - how is the area vs stock of the stock sway bar not 100%

Just a heads up for people looking for just the hotchkis front bar. I bought the hotchkis and installed it today. Hotchkis sells the front by itself on their website, look for the bar 22441F, this is the front bar:

HOTCHKIS SPORT SUSPENSION SYSTEMS, PARTS, AND COMPLETE BOLT-IN PACKAGES » Blog Archive 2008+ NISSAN 370Z G37 G37S G35 SPORT FRONT SWAY BAR - HOTCHKIS SPORT SUSPENSION SYSTEMS, PARTS, AND COMPLETE BOLT-IN PACKAGES

Amazon Both Bars:

Amazon.com: Hotchkis 22441 Sport Sway Bar Set for Nissan 370Z, G37, G37S and G35 08+: Automotive

I bought both front and rear on amazon for $362. Front one by itself on the hotchkis website is $265. Sell the rear on eBay for $200 and your front bar price will be $162

Hi Folks,

I come from the dark side in an Infiniti, but I have a Q60s Limited (G37 IPL) and just measured the OD of these bars to be the same as the NISMO 370z.

I'm not sure if you want to put this in the table, but I figured I'd post it for reference as I know I'm not the only one board hopping looking for suspension setup from the Z gurus.

I can't tell by looking that the G37 stabilizer bars are hollow. The ends are well-finished and if there's a seam, I can't see it. What's the evidence for hollow? The RWD sport coupe and sedan use the same rear bar as the NISMO Z34.

The table shows inner diameter for the Godspeed bar... but I believe that bar is solid construction?
