Default Is it worth it?

I'm buying a set of anti-roll bars (sway bars)for my 90 hatch (STD), i've narrowed it down to two brands. My choices are Eibach and Progress Group.The Progress Group bars are about $75 more then the Eibach.Since I have no experience w/ either company, i'm turning to those who possibly do.I would appreciate any feed back on these products. I want to get the Progress Group set but so far can't justify the extra $75 for them.
Thanks for any input.

I think you should check out Suspension Techniques. I, along with many other people here, are using the ST bar(s) and are quite satisfied. I'm not too up on the 2 brands you're looking at (on their product specs, I mean), but for $130/bar, ST is a good choice. Also, the rear bar is adjustable. Just something else to look at. BTW, my experience comes from a ST 22mm rear bar on a 1990 CRX DX.

I have the rear progress bar. Works fine. I like that it mounts to the control arm mounting points in addition to the standard points...less likely to rip out of the chassis as a result.

Thanks for all the replies. I will also consider the Suspension Tech. bars as well.Does anyone know if it is a direct mount or if i have to purchase a kit to mount the rear bar?
Thanks-Jason
