Default Rear Lower Tie Bar

Im looking at getting one and I was just wondering first off is it worth it? Second im lowered on AGX/GCs all the way down will I have to worry about clearance issues? And does anyone have a picture of one on a 4gen? I searched but noone relly followed through with pics or anything. Thanks

i'd get a better rear sway bar first.

the lower strut tie bar doesn't do much.

Call me a ricer, but I think it looks cool at night when your driving behind it...not a lot off performance noticed, though, but turns are easier

You can see by looking at the way the prelude suspension is organized a lower tie ar doesn't really do anything. The way the back end is connected there's really no open flex points to box in. The Skunk2 Lower Arm bar goes on the above bolts in line with the sway bar. That one actually works and improves steering control under hard cornering

I agree and disagree. I've never tried the Skunk2 so I can't really compare to it. I do have the DC lower bar tho. I did notice a difference in the cars willingness to rotate in conjuction with the upper bar. However, I think the DC bars are crappity crap crap crap and that billet alu needs to be replaced by cold hard steel. The DC bar is deffinatly not woth its selling price and I give it 6 out of 10. 9 out of 10 in the bling department. *flips off aftermarket mfg's*

It looks like it is tucked up underthere nicely so I wont have to worry about clearance. Where exactly does it bolt up to?

How would this work on a 4ws. I know it will do nothing for the performance. Only BLING BLING.
