Yup, true...true... thumbup.gif

However, a small investment (since now much cheaper with local ventures) wld make it more towards the "ideal" geometry, agreed? tongue.gif

Btw, read in one of the links abt installation...that wheel alignment needs 2b done after installation?? Izzit a really necessary step? Or juz a precaution? TQ.

Depends where and what was removed to do the installation. If having brand new tyres then better check to be safe. If having old tyres, don't do also can..... tongue.gif

How new/old is yr car? tongue.gif
Feel no fantastic difference in ride can b expected. IMO wld most probably help maintain car subframe geometry for long term gains.

Best of both worlds? Do BOTH! whistling.gif

UR bars = very visible (ppl can see?) & probably more noticeable benefits.
Stiff Rings/Rigid Collars = kinda "invisible" (only yu know?) but long term benefits.

Your decision...like everything else in Life! whistling.gif

UR bars and collars are NOT the same thing...

they both offer different benefits to the car




and as a thought... UR bars are heavy...collars are light.. the lighter the car the better tongue.gif

Hi Bros!
Fyi I juz got set of "Stiff Rings" (2 pairs for 2 front subframe bolts) for my Saga FL!! thumbup.gif

Seems other 2 subframe bolts + holes very well designed/fitted & not need these Stiff Rings... rclxms.gif

Bought item via Online order/Courier. No dealers in/near my area. sad.gif

Now prob is whether to DIY or find a reliable understanding mech to install... rclxub.gif

What do yu guys think I shld do? notworthy.gif

workshop.... the bolts are prollly too tight to remove by hand and might need to use the air gun.
