Smile Best configuration for Eibach Sway Bars

I just bought Eibach Front and Rear Sway Bars for my G35 (non S). WOHOO!! (MY FIRST MOD). Since there are two different settings on the front and three at the back, which configuration do you like the best and why? I do not really want to change the setting again once i have it installed. I am a daily driver and I would like to get even wear on the tires. I would really appreciate your inputs.

I have mine set softest up front and middle in the rear. Very balanced, less understeer than stock and the back end behaves well until it breaks loose in a predictable manner. No snap oversteer or anything. Comfortable for a daily driver. My fear with running stiffest settings is breaking an endlink, but I might try it sometime and see if I can tell a difference.

If there is a middle setting, that's what I would set it too. It's a trade off between performance and comfort. Stiff swaybars on bad roads will rattle your teeth! And as surfjax87 mentioned, it takes a toll on your endlinks. On my sport, I actually wish I stayed stock. Just lowering on Eibach will lower your center of gravity and help in cornering.

I bought just the rear sway bar from eibach because the front is already pretty thick. I set it to the middle setting and it feels pretty good. If I try out the stiffest setting, how much more stress will be put on my end links? I'm afraid of breaking them

So do you think the stock sway is good enough?

I am thinking about getting sway bar with stock suspension as well. so your opinion would definitely help.

i am trying not the lower the car. cause i think if i do it, i would have to go all out with coil over + camber kit + spacer (or rim)

Thanks.
