obx rear lower strut bar help

i have the rs, i have stock 14s until end of this summer (late august-ish) i am lookin to get 17x7's w/ 215 or 225 z-rated low profile tires. So just get the swaybar? Does anyone have a link?
 
Miami you would be better off going with a 225 maybe, and this is a big maybe try and see how a 235 would look on a 7" wide wheel. as for link to sway bars my personal recomendation is rmdsm, if you go to the parts catalouge for this site or go to yahoo and type in rmdsm it should come up. I have driven in many cars with upgraded sways and the rm bars are by far the best ones out, plus rm sells a whole kit just for people like you who have rs eclipses that includes all the mounting hardware necassary to install a rear sway since you don't have one from the factory. A couple of warnings in advance the rm bars are a serious set of sway bars, they will take some getting used to so I don't recomend pushing the car to the limits on a.) very narrow roads with little margin for error or b.)roads you don't know very well. Once you get the hang of how the car now responds with the new bars go out and enjoy how your dsm shoudl have come from the factory. Oh and a few other notes about hte rm bars DO NOT LET OF THE GAS MID TURN OR RIGHT BEFORE THE TURN. you have to let off a distance before the turn and coast or keep a slight pressure on the gas pedal or you will be doing some 360's in the car.

Umm is that your recomendation befor or after the sway bars? I recently (umm 4 weeks ago??) did a 360 (pouring ran as i was getting of i-95 and getting onto the 826, its sort of like a 180 degree curve getting onto it) but i let go of the gas and my car spun out once (thank god it's a 2-lane road adn that there was no one else there) i got the car back in contorl but that was scary....feelt like the car hydroplaned or something.....

well if you spun out int he rain then that isn't to much of a surprise, but if you not careful you will be doing it in the dry with the rm bars. Just take it easy for a little while after installing the bars to get the hang of how the car reacts.
 
why is it not to your suprise? my aim is mnf155 we can chat longer there so the mods wont get mad :p
