Working on a suspension system setup and wanted to get some opinions on things.

It should be ok as long as its adjustable (3-4 different settings). Why do u ask on the freeway in the rain? If ur going straight it shouldn't matter what size ur rear sway bar is. But if u have it on hard setting and not use to it on turns, I can guarantee that u will crash ur car. I have a 24mm Whiteline and when I was auto-xing with r-comps on it was very tail happy. It's fun on a closed circuit, but risky on the road.
If ur working on a suspension setup, I would recommend Swift springs or Gt worx spring with bilstein struts, Whiteline RCA kit, rear trailing arm bushing, and bump steer kit. I would avoid coilover unless u are willing to purchase a decent set, usually above $2000 and u know how to set it up correctly. Just my thought on suspension needs, especially with no track in Hawaii.

Ah they do depend on the tires a lot.
They are extreme summer performance tires, so they may not do so well in the rain, but I mean when it comes to slight turns in the rain, I was worried about spinning lol.

I just talked to my friend who answered this for me.
Its all good to run the bar.
Thanks!!!

meh can't find a day off. i dont really make it out to things anyway so idk lol
