It also depends on the driving style . The stiffer the springs the better , because the bar has to work less . In my case , I have stock dampers and Evotion springs that are a bit lower and stiffer so pretty soft suspension altogether. I just think better safe than sorry . After this happens , you wish you would have done it .

Why would someone install bigger bars and use stock end links to reduce the bars effect ? My rear Eibach sway came with end link with much harder bushings .
