Hi guys,

I was on the PRO Civic website and I saw that they offered three options:

- Eibach 19mm
- Whiteline 22mm
- CT Engineering 19mm

My questions is are these actually all available for the Si? I haven't heard anything about these bars, save for the Eiback, which I heard is on back order until December. Any closure on this would be great. Thanks!
 
The 8th gen civic sway bars work without issue on the 9th gen. The progress rear sway is also an option, but they either don't sell it, or don't have it listed under the 2012+ civic. A number of users here are running the progressive bar, and the eibach. I don't know of anyone running the ct or whiteline off hand.
 
Progress is the most common. CT and Whiteline are both more expensive. Eibach is smaller. Progress is 22mm and works better than the others. And for best performance, leave the front bar stock.... so the Progress 22mm is all you need. And they are easy to get. ;)

Does the 2006-2011 fit the 2012?
 
Great, and in terms of install, do we need new endlinks? or anything or is it a direct swap?
 
Yep it fits. And also progress now includes a small adapter piece that makes it a direct bolt on to the 2012+ Civic EX/LX without buying anything else.... no need to purchase brackets from an Si anymore. :)

It fits the 2012 LX fine even keeping the stock endlinks, so I think it should fit yours. I dont think any suspension items were changed from 12-13 LX's but i could always be wrong.
@Nix gave me lots of good advise when i bought mine, he might know for sure if it would fit yours?
 
How comfortable over a speed bump or a small pit does it feel after installing one?

A sway bar is not going to affect this. It is only going to affect the amount of body roll a car has in turns. Less body roll equates to tighter turning without feeling like the rear end of the car is going to slide out on you.
 
i bought my progress from chris and since i installed it have never regretted it.
