Wow that is an awesome price. What tire setup are you running?
Suspension is Evasive Spec. Tein SRC.
The bars should work really well with R compounds as well.

When you installed the bars would you say the balance remained the same as it was with the stock bars, but now with less roll? Did you feel that you had more grip now?
It seems pretty standard when running non-staggered to only upgrade the front bar. What are your thoughts?
I run non-staggered with Tein RS coilvers (10K springs). I found that depending on my shock settings I can dial oversteer out from the nonstaggered setup. I would however like to get some bars to help limit the roll and I feel like I could better use my tires with a stiffer bar.

For '07 you should have 300lb/in front and 311lb/in rear
Not sure about how it breaks down py part numbers. I am quoting this info from some other posts https://www.s2ki.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=818884

Maxrev, do you have the front and rear rates switched in your first post? Seems that the larger diameter bar should be stiffer, and heavier, but it is being shown the opposite.

I think the rates are correct for the Eibach.
The adjustability give you flexibility to match different setups.
Examples:
For an oem, staggered setup I would adjust the front and rear at the same time to match the tire (R comps or Street).
If I had a non staggered setup with out a wing, I would set the front to be in the stiff setting.
I run on street tire (Yokohama Neova AD08) with 16kg/mm and didn't feel that the bars were too stiff.
