Default Stock

The A4 comes with front and rear ARB's from the factory.

Sport Packages come equipped with slightly thicker bars than the Non-Sport package.

Aftermarket bars from Neuspeed and H-Sport are also available, and slightly more aggressive than the Sport Package.

We have H-Sport bars in stock, email if you have any questions.

Default Re: the sports one is stiffer than the stock ones?

The "stock" ones come two types. One version with the sport package, and one with the non-sport package.

Sport sways are thicker, and limit the "roll" of the vehicle more than the non-sport sways.

Sway bars couple the independent suspension on the left, to the right. This reduces the amount of roll the car experiences in a turn.

Aftermarket sway bars are generally thicker, and reduce MORE roll than the sport sways.

Default Do you think putting larger bars on a stock suspension would help cornering? (m)

I've got stock suspension and don't really want to give up much ride quality, but I'd like to corner a little flatter. I was thinking of putting on sport bars in place of my stock ones since they are a bolt in replacement. What do you think?

Default Yes..

Only downside, if you go with extremely stiff bars is loss of adhesive on slick surfaces. Going to the OE Sport bars would be a fine upgrade, and accomplish just what you want.
