Im thinking about getting a 19mm integra front sway bar for the rear of my civic. It has mostly stock suspension and is loweered about 1.5 inches. Is 19mm a good size for the bar? because ive heard you can also get a 22mm one off of another car and am unsure of which to get. Ill be mostly doing street driving but want as little roll as posible but not an oversteering pig.

Does the integra front bar allow you to stilll you the stock muffler position?

THanks

I have the teg front bar (19mm / 3/4") on the rear, and it works well with my setup. It's been so long though that I don't really recall how well it handled with good tires...

dont go any smaller then 3/4 in. But to answer whats the best size we must know all of the suspension specs, veh. weight, veh use and type of tires.

I have KYB Excell G shocks (aussie version of Gr2's) and lowered rear springs (stiffer than stock) and the front torsion bars lowered 1 notch and no rear swaybar at all (never came with one). I just have some normal stret tyres with average grip and stock weight.
Why do you say dont go any smaller than 19mm?
What size is equivilant to a stock internal bar and a welded internal bar?
Im leaning towards the 22mm Integra Type R bar now because of what has been said and i think it will end up cheaper and a better fit.
