im running wide front wheel/tire and was wondering what my options were for a new sway bar with the most clearance for modded knuckles.....
current front setup:
pbm FLCA/ten rod combo
pbm knuckles..
18x10 +0 with 265 tires
and a tanabe front sway bar
the tanabe sway bar is my issue right now.... the pbm Flca moved my tension rod in enough where i have plenty of clearance for that now.
from what i have been able to find by research is the sikky front sway bar is designed for some more clearance...

my concern for this is i cant find any images to show the wheel clearance improvement.. and from what i understand is that these have very little clearance with a nismo power brace. i have a custom power brace so it may not fit with mine at all........
from this picture it doesnt look like there is any additional clearance, it looks as if the sawy bar sticks out further than the oem tension rods...(taken from their website)

are there any other companies that make a sway bar with these provisions? and does anybody have a pic showing the added wheel clearance of the sikky bar or others?
(before anybody comments on my excessivly wide wheels/tires, i also use this car for auto cross and want to ensure i have clearance on these wheels as i do use a narrower wheel for drifting....)
please help! thanks in advance!
