First off --> This poll is to help suspension n00b personnel…so if you have time, please explain your position, and VOTE!
 Okay, if you were to do one suspension upgrade, which would it be? …I know a lot of people will say lowering springs…but if you could explain why lowering springs over for example sway bars? Just an idea.  ...also, if you'd like to add a comment about a good combo of suspension upgrades, post! ...don't say ALL OF THEM  ...that is basically a given  lol. ~snap -------------------- Past: V6 Swapped 6G Celica, E46 BMW M3, Jeep Wrangler TJ

I've front and rear strut braces, and a lower arm bar.
I've found that the front strut and the lower arm bar, really tighten the front end a bit, and reduce flex. I've also got performance tires Falken Azenis RT215, once they are warmed up they are sticky as hell. I cant comment on other suspensions mods, cause I dont have them. But I'll be getting coilovers next as my next suspension / handling mod
