FS: 996 C4 Eibach Sway Bar Kit 7214.320
I have a new set of Eibach Sway Bars for a 996 C4, their part #7214.320. Front and rear bars included. Eibach lists them for $519, but sells them for $428, Tirerack for $350. NOTE: I just noticed that these are for a C4 fitment. The fronts for a C2 and C4 are different, rears are the same.
These are new in the box. Asking $300 + Shipping, or best offer..

Doug,
I have seen several different Bar diameters for the C4 fitment - even in Ads for the Eibach Bars. What size are these bars? Are these a good match for a Bilstein Coil-over suspension?

Jack -
I have not opened the box but the Eibach site says the front is 24mm solid/non-adjustable and the rear 19mm, solid/3 way adjustable. I know that a lot of owners that put on the Bilstein coilovers also upgrade the sway bars. If you get the Porsche M030 set up it comes with upgraded sway bars. With the Bilstein, which does not come with sway bars some use the GT3 bars, but I don't know how there compare but Carnewal says that the GT3 bars are 26.7mm 5 way adjustable for the front and 20.8mm 4 way adjustable for the rear.
Not sure what the stock bars are, I know they are not adjustable.

Interesting.... According to 996 Essential Companion those are almost the same size as the bars on MY2000 C4. At 23.6 Front and 19.6 rear - so I do not think I would see a difference in the set you have. Although the Adjistable rear bar must offer some additional stiffing. I think I will do more research before I jump on these - but thanks Doug.
P.S. Is it really that Sunny & Top down weather in the Chicago area? Chicago is my home town - moved west for better weather... but not much this year.

Normal front 23.1mm x 3.4mm / rear 18.5mm x 2.5mm
ROW M030 front 23.6mm x 3.6mm / rear 19.6mm x 2.6 mm
Eibach C2 front 24.0mm x solid / rear 19.0mm x solid (only rear 3 way adj)
I'm pretty sure the C4 stock front sway is only 23.1mm hollow.
The C2 M030 and C4S front sway is 23.6 hollow
Eibach front is not only larger in diameter, but solid.
