I've been thinking about upgrading my sway bars. Should I do both front and rear or is a 22mm rear sway bar upgrade enough to reduce the understeer?

Also any recommendations for end link upgrades?

I did the rear only with the white line 22 mm rsb and Honda Accord end Links. For the front I replaced the soft springs with FK8 stock springs

Do you like the feel of the 22mm? How is it for daily driving? Would you ever suggest 25mm for daily driving?

Not sure I saw much of a change. I did it with in the first 500 miles. Biggest improvement I saw was with the springs

Are the Accord end links actually a 1:1 replacement?

@Integra23, can you tell us a little more about your experience swapping to the FK8 front springs?
I'm thinking of doing this to my A-spec Integra and I'm wondering about how big the tradeoffs are when it comes to ride comfort vs. cornering stability.

I loved it. Firmed the front end up and kept the ride height the same. Its firmer but no bounce. I just like the confidence when driving over rail road tracks and coming off of high curbs/driveways and not bottoming out the car.

Dope, I'm going to try getting that done before summer rolls around. The ride is great until I push it a little more on a canyon road and so I'm looking for ways to increase stability and reduce roll a little too.
