It 100% is, but I think I heard the argument against it was that it's TOO stiff for the SHO platform. Can't confirm or deny that part...

So it feels like you're on rails? Because I would be into that - I like performance, but if it causes issues, not so much.

Do you know what the problem with it was?

Because some people don't like the H&R's because it's too rough but I have no problem with them... obviously they haven't done hard time in a Freightshaker, Peterbuilt or Kenworth w9. ;)

I don't think anyone has actually tried it, but through calculations it comes out like it would be too thick.

No, im just going by what people have said here. I have one on my XSport and I love it, but apparently the issue is its too stiff...not sure how that translates into ride quality on the SHO or if that's even the case. I don't personally know anyone who's actually tried it yet

Ok, now you're just lobbing these in like softballs for @SM105K to smash out of the park.

Too thick to fit (especially with H&R's) or causes ride issues?

There's plenty of space between my bar and the subframe even with H&R, an extra 5mm diameter won't make a difference there. But when you calculate the bar rate, the thicker bar just doesn't match up with the spring rates that we utilize for our car. It's been a while since I've calculated everything and I'd have to dig through notes and emails with H&R, Steeda and Whiteline, but it just came up that you would have issues getting full rebound and compression with the thicker bar.

Stock = 7/8"
Whiteline = 1"
Steeda = 1 1/8"
