Not sure if the stock springs have enough rate to handle that big of a bar.

Autocrossers in stock class do it all the time. It's pretty much std operating procedure. And yes, I have a 35mm and stock springs on my Formula.

Ok thats great then, I think im going to keep the 19mm rear. I thought about running a 21mm but I think the 19mm is enough.

What other bar is there then suspension techniques, I would prefer to grab a hollow bar.

Springs don't matter that much with the sway bar, strano runs stock fronts with 35mm.

Strano parts.com has a 35mm hollow.

The cheapest hollow 35 is going to come from stranoparts.com You'll have to call, the web site is less than spectacular.

Talk with Sam Strano at stranoparts.com for the best advise. My understanding is you would want either a 35/21 combo or a 32/19 combo.
