As per the title really, I have fitted the rear Eibach ARB on my Prodrive Bug STI and took it for a spin..... appears to have dialled out most of the understeer! now im unsure about going through the hassle of fitting the front and cancelling out what seems to me to be a better handling car.

Will it have a detrimental effect elsewhere or any unforeseen issues that will inevitably have me ending up in a ditch?

Thanks,
Andy

I've read this quite a bit but mostly on US forums, it seems there, upgrading the rear anti roll bar only to sort understeer is pretty common, i don't think it'll cause you any issues with an eibach one, i think you can go too far the other way if you put a seriously heavy duty rear in with stock front, but the eibach should be fine, though it may be worth fitting upgraded droplinks all round

When I had a bug I fitted a whiteline to the rear, then the front, went back to standard front.

I also went for wider rubber, and the FARB helped there, as did the "anti-lift" kit, but I didn't lower the car till later when coilovers were added....

Wider just on the rear?? Or all round?

I run the Eibach kit front and rear on my bug, when I was on std suspension it made the car almost perfectly neutral.

I've only got the 24mm Whiteline on the rear of mine. I like how it handles. Lift off oversteer is a bit easy though, especially when damp!

same here whiteline adjustable set on rear only no fronts, advised not too change fronts. as previous post have read some have upgraded the front and then gone back to standard.
