I am using 22mm on the stiff setting on a 2017 wrx premium which have a softer inverted front strut unlike the base models. The results are better cornering stability and rotation. In my experience the endlinks should be installed on swaybar before they are mounted on the car. The ball socket joint needs to be held in place with an allen key to fasten the nut. The lack of room makes this very difficult to do once the endlinks are mounted on the lower control arm. Also note that the adjustable swaybar needs the adjustable endlinks in order to use the soft or stiff settings. The spacers must be position to accomodate for the change in blade length. Personally, i think it might be a better option to go with the 24mm bar on the medium setting to keep the endlinks centered in the control arm for a more balanced energy transfer. I highly recommend these for anyone looking to improve the cornering capabilities of their ride.
paired this bar with same 22mm up front very neutral balance as mentioned in a previous comment this bar does seem to make the car track straighter oddly enough i noticed this right off the bat before hitting the twistie roads running zero toe and some camber it had a tendency to follow imperfections in the road but this bar seemed to keep it in check highly recommend this bar really brings the rear in control gives you a firm grasp on the cars behavior when suspension is fully loaded
Did this install while doing my catback, incredibly easy to install and performs very well. Turn in and mid-corner understeer have been neutralized. My STI handles like a dream. Make sure to upgrade the endlinks as the stock ones aren't up to park for the bigger sway bar.
I installed the Whiteline 22mm at a local shop and boy does it handle great now. The Whiteline comes with additional brackets the other sway bars don't include and I think they help with the bracing. I love it. Now it corners like it's on rails now.
I installed the 22mm Whiteline rear sway bar on medium setting along with Kartboy endlinks. The 2018 WRX is responsive and agile from the factory, but it seems to reach its cornering limit at lower speeds than some CUV's. This sway bar upgrade added a huge improvement in cornering capability and there is no noticeable additional harshness in the ride. The thin factory mounting bracket looks like it is definitely benefiting from the support braces included with this sway bar. Apply waterproof lubricant liberally to the bushings in order to prevent noise.

A: Yes it will fit. The upgrade from stock most SJ FXT owners start with is the OEM Subaru STI 20mm bar. The reason I am responding is that I am looking at this same Whiteline bar as my next upgrade. I'm not going to mention the part number or price. You can check out the Forester Forum for info. Here is my 2015 with an OEM STI 20mm bar. I'm running the Cusco swaybar braces, chassis bracing, and rear diff carrier, Whiteline swaybar locks, endlinks, adjustable toe arms and diff locks. ISC lower control arms all purchased from Rallysport Direct. Also shown are my BC DR Series Coilovers which they also sell. However, mine were custom built and valved ordered directly from BC. At least 75/80% of my performance parts were purchased here. I'm still waiting for my sponsorship!

A: We can only confirm the fit on the Forester with the forester components but this is also confirmed for some STI, so there is a good chance it will be compatible if you have swapped to some STI components.

A: Stock endlinks can be used, but we advise you to install the bar with aftermarket endlinks. The stock endlinks are prone to bending and breaking when installed with a stiffer aftermarket sway bar.

A: This 22mm rear sway bar would be a nice improvement over a 19mm sway bar.

A: A generic sway bar conversion chart would estimate the increased rigidity of the 22 mm bar to be about 80% stiffer then the 19 mm. It's be safe to assume that most individuals would find this to be a rather noticeable difference in performance.
