It really doesn't matter. They're just a metal bar.
Trying searching the forum for different kinds. I have a whiteline. That and ultra racing would be the most common.

Edit: As steve said though they don't really reduce body roll. They're not a suspension mod they're a chassis mod.

Another question on rear sway bars. Would 22mm or 24mm be a better size? Would getting the 24 be better? Is it overkill? lol

Edit: right now im running stock springs, but i will be installing lowered H&R springs in the near future

yeah springs and strut bars help the body roll, but the ultimate buy for it would be the sway bars :)

Front Wheel Drive – increase the rear sway bar size
Rear Wheel Drive – increase the front sway bar size
4 Wheel Drive – increase front then rear bar size
All Wheel Drive – increase rear then front bar size

This thread also has some useful info, although for subies lol

how can a solid spring steel bar adjust its diameter?

and yes, it is best to do both front and rear for the full benefit..

length no, when u talk about buying a certain size swaybar, say 22mm or 24mm, thats the diameter and u cant change that.
the series of holes can give u more or less tension but the bar remains the same size.

the length of the bar is determined by the width of the vehicle so i dont get what they mean, u must be reading it wrong?
