im just worried about the ride quality... i know the lower you go, the worse it gets... i was gonna do Bilstein HD shocks with it too, so it might help, but i wanna keep the comfortable ride quality

+1 for the Eibach's... HK is a great brand, but I have never used them... I have the full Eibach drop kit and the Sways... Rides good, tows better, and i'll never drive another SUV without Sways again... It makes THAT much of a difference.

I'm using the Eibachs. The HKs look nice, but I didn't think they were worth that much money.

the hotchkis have a bend at the ends to help with positioning on lowered vs stock. you want the bar ends as parallel to the ground as possible. that is what sets the torsional load at neutral. if you are lowered and use stock height bars you'll need different end links to help you out. i noticed a huge difference on my suburban that is even more ass heavy than a tahoe. on sharp turns and quick changes it recovers better and body roll is drastically reduced

did you install the sway bars before or after you lowered it?

Look like most of you like the eibach sways. Is there any reason for this over the hotchkis or helwigs or any other brand. Im looking into some also and just found this thread.
