I'm looking into getting front & rear sway bars for my Gen V soon and from the searching I've done, I can't seem to find an answer as to whether the front or rear should be larger.

I know the suspension is purely up to how you want the car to behave, but as a general rule of thumb for a daily driver, which one should be larger (if any)?

For the GenV, I have found that both being same size makes them more neutral. Rear larger to induce oversteer

Ah ok. I was looking at a 24mm front and 22mm rear from Whiteline. I might stick with the 22mm rear and see if I can find a matching 22mm front one from Cusco or the likes.

Be aware that the size isn't the only factor in how stiff a swaybar is. A 22mm solid bar will be stiffer than a 22mm hollow bar. A 22mm hollow bar from one manufacturer may be stiffer than a 22mm hollow bar from another manufacturer.

I believe Whiteline match their front and rear bars together - if they sell 24mm front and 22mm rear as a package, they clearly believe that pairing works well - they've put a lot of time/money into their development, and they can probably be trusted (likewise Cusco and other good quality brands).

Ah cool, on the Whiteline site the 24mm front is all that shows up for the Gen V's

I know that Whiteline bars are solid, no idea about Cusco though
