(1) 16x7 Wheels
(2) 215-45-16 Azenis
(3) Ground Controls from an RSX Type S
(4) RSX Type S Rear Swaybar (thicker than EP)

This was done to enable it to work as an instructor car at the ITR Expo. If it still doesn't rotate enough, then we go with....

(5) RSX Type S Front Swaybar (thinner than EP)

I'll keep y'all posted on how it works out. :)

I've got a progress 22mm rear bar and the rsx-s front bar. I've wondered about the larger 16 inch wheels, as I have the 15's, and if the increased width is worth the loss of gearing.

Not sure what you mean by a loss of gearing.

The 215-45-16 tyre is about 1/2" lower than the 195-60-15 tyre, isn't it?

How do you like the rsx front sway?

I'd say it definietly changes things. I'll have to autocross some more to be more definite.
