It essentially accomplishes the same thing. However, lighter bars work the suspension more. Then again the heavier bars will keep the car flatter in the corners.

Switching to a 24mm front SS bar creates a difference of 4mm. One millimeter in bar diameter is significant. The higher the difference number, the more neutral a 5th Gen becomes. |

So a ZL1 front and 1LE rear will work good together. I scored a front Z bar this weekend so I hope to start tinkering with the suspension soon. I'm really digging the front radius arm bushings. Like Johnny Cash sang "1 piece at a time an it didn't cost me a dime (I wish)" LMAO!!!!!

Waste of time, spring rates are too low to improve handling.

I thought the ZL springs were considerablably stiffer compared to standard SS plus I want the lowering affect of the ZL springs I got them for a steal from a forum member

Sorry to say they are not going to make any real difference. Resell them before more people read this.

So how about SS springs with 1LE shocks a stock setup basically with ZL front sway and a 1LE REAR sway. So no benefit with Z springs short of the lowering effect???
