I had a 28mm front bar, and then I deleted it. Much better...

That said, I have the spring rates and damping to support such a change. I'll have the static camber to support it eventually, but the car was performing artfully at Mid-Ohio two weeks ago without any more camber mods (Dinan plates and M3 control arms).

Now, when I was on my Koni's and Eibach springs, the 28mm sway bar helped a lot with the wallowing and softness of the car side-to-side. It made it much more stable at highway speeds, and fixed a lot of complaints I had about how the car felt.

Sway bars are merely tools for fine tuning. See how the car feels, and then add/remove bar rate to adjust as you see fit.
