Sweet! Hotchkis is making sways for the 1er. Hope it'll be like the 335's tube + adjustable ones.

I posted this info in the sway bar combo thread - but guess no one saw......
I truly believe the Hotchkis e92 bar sitting on the shelf will bolt right up, but need bar width dimension which I asked Drew for, and/or a test fit, which he is wanting to do I guess.....so somebody out there on the left coast can you hook us up????????

I am really liking the Hotchkiss idea at 32mm.......
I sent an email to Hotchkiss.

We have a few test cars, you need it in So Cal correct? Give us the location I can have one of my techs send the car over.

If you need one in FL I have a test car there too so let me know. Thanks!
