I have a set of jap spec tein flex on the way and was wondering which front sway to go for, the 22mm or adjustable 24mm?

Go the adjustable in whatever size, (depending on spring rate) i have a 24 adjustable on the front and its great with Kings.The 3 positions are quite noticable in effect to each other especially with new bushes.

Being able to soften the front in the wet made a difference in laptimes at a recent hillclimb event.

what spring rates?
assuming 7kg/6kg F/R, then I'd go for either a 24mm bar, with or without a rear 12mm bar, or a 22mm front and no rear bar.

Probably 24 on stiff with the OEM 12mm rear would be ideal.

I have the racing beat front AND rear sways on our NB8A.

So far they're great but I haven't played with them on the track yet.
