Stillen Sway Settings w/ HKS Hipermax coilovers?

OK, here’s the setup on my sedan:

HKS Hipermax LS coilovers, 19x8.5 wheels with Bridgestone S-03 tires. I will be installing Stillen sway bars sometime in March.

What would be your suggestion for the settings on the sways? I’m thinking soft in the front and medium in the rear. Any other suggestions and why? Thanks in advance.

Agreed. Your HKS LS coilovers transfered a lot of roll stiffness to the front, upping the rear bar more then the front is especially prudent in your case. Ultimately, your goal is to get the car to behave like you like it, it's up to you to test and make changes if needed.

HKS LS G35 (Monotube construction, non adjustable dampners)
Spring rates 448/336
Stiffer then oem by F+43% R -1%
transfers 44% roll stiffness to the front
