22mm front and 22mm rear ARBs. Good or bad idea ?
Hi. I bought a 22mm front and 22mm rear anti roll bars, Whiteline, both not adjustable (not fitted yet). Could you tell me please, is it a good combo to reduce Impreza understeering a bit or not? I'm running on Whiteline wire type, rear Drop Links as well.
How often do you have to change bushes on ARBs ? The ones I bought came with bushes, but not too sure if should I change them or not?
Thank You

I've always been told thicker back. 22mm front should have a 24mm back but its different strokes for different folks.
You could leave the front as is and fit the 22mm rear or look for a 24mm rear and fit that with the 22mm front.
You'll easily sell the 22mm rear.
You may find someone who'll do a swap.

To dial out understeer, you usually only upgrade the rear anti roll bar for an upgraded thicker one, however, i dont see why it wouldnt work if you upgraded both and had thicker at the rear than the front.

Always buy adjustable bit pointless having fixed 22mm front and rear IMHO car will feel ok I guess but you'd need to set the geo up properly with camber bolts to mitigate that lazy rear end Replace the old bushes with the new yellow ones and plenty of grease
Oh and leave me some Itrader feedback

^ Like Stu said
Further, with slight risk of confusion, soz
To do a proper job, whichever option you go for, you need to go adjustable and then tweak/personalise, and yes, with geo to suit
I like the 23f/25r combo on my (classic) weekender and 22r only for my daily (classic wagon)
Edit: arbs are 22/24 adjustables, and 22 adjustable for the wagon

Click on my trader score '20' and then copy the link from your centre caps thread where it asks for the URL
I'd keep the 22front, sell the 22 rear and buy a 24 rear adjustable
Only other thing to do is sell the front and keep the rear and use the OEM front like you said will still be better

Is it a big difference between adjustable and non adjustable one? I mean, NON adjustable one will be equivalent to which setup from adjustable one?
53WRX,
I'm doing exactly like that but it comes that is something wrong with my details.

Ok, I'll leave the front one standard + rear 22mm Non adj. and see if there is any difference. If not happy with that, I'll sell it and get adjustable one.
Anybody interested in 22mm front one ?
