h-sports and eagle gs-d3 .. my impressions
i did the bars at the same time that i put the tires so its difficult to compare the performance of the tires alone to the PS2's
all i know is they were relatively affordable and supposed to be amazing in the rain
i left the bars on the soft setting after reading some opinions
the body roll is reduced a LOT but not 100% gone and the car is more fun to drive
that being said, it also feels a bit more dangerous because its harder to judge when youll lose control on a turn
this morning i had a scare...(not sure if its the change in tires, the new bars or the fact that the tires werent warmed up and the temp was around 40 degrees) but probably a combo of all 4...
i took a 80 degree turn at about 40mph and all 4 tires seemed to lose it at once but quickly recovered (EVIL BUDDAH2 u warned me!!)
i guess once i learn to safely use this new "feature" to my advantage it will be a lot more fun to drive

I also recently put on H-sports and on soft...
There is actually less body roll even with the stasis suspension. I'm glad I did it. The alcon clutch drive plate also went in. It's funny but I really have not abused the clutch, but my flywheel was resurfaced 2nd to heat spots. Anyways, I have to go through the break in procedure again for the next 1000 miles with the new plate. Hopefully this will be more durable.

Its the tires
I ran those on one of my old cars... and there very greasy when new. IMHO those are some of the best tires ive ever owned and the rain grip is surreal. Just wait till there broken in, maybe like 500 miles and you really start to see them shine.

The pedal feel is a little firmer, but close to stock...
But I really need to tell you later because I was driving around a b5 a4 with a loosy goosy clutch and that has subjectively screwed my ability to give you an objective opinion right now.
