H&R Front Sway Bar - E52 2000-2003 Z8 Roadster

Larger sway bars reduce body roll and weight transfer, improving handling, grip, and steering response. This is also true for the "modern classic" that is the E52 Z8 Roadster. This front sway bar can be installed on any 2000, 2001, 2002, or 2003 model year BMW Z8, including the Z8-based Alpina Roadster. 

The H&R front sway bar fits in the stock location just as the original sway bar, using the same/stock links and include H&R's exclusive Teflon-lined urethane sway bar bushings, which require no grease or maintenance. Adjustable links are optional, and recommended with coil overs or to improve sway bar clearance. 

BimmerWorld generally recommends sway bars be upgraded after installing a spring/shock upgrade or coil overs, although it's possible to use this with your stock springs and still get a handling improvement. On the Z8 specifically, you may not want to touch the stock suspension of your now-classic collector BMW. But adding a front sway bar is a great way to improve lateral handling abilities without touching the shocks/dampers or springs of the car. 

H&R sway bars are developed and manufactured in Germany to ISO 9001 and TUV standards from the highest tensile spring steel alloy available. Spring steel has the correct strength, stiffness, and spring characteristics for sway bar use. Purpose-built machines manufacture the bars to exact tolerances to ensure a precise fit and correct operation to ensure improved performance for every application. Each bar is heat treated and shot peened for increased surface hardness and then powder coated for long lasting durability.
