Progress anti-roll bars dramatically improve handling. How? They minimize the traction-robbing body "lean" that rolls part of the outside tires off the pavement. Progress Sport-tuned Anti-roll bars from HEELTOEAUTO.com replace skinny OEM bars and rubber bushings with larger diameter (stiffer) alloy steel bars and polyurethane bushings. More roll stiffness means less body "lean", and the tires stay flatter on the pavement (larger contact patches). The result is more grip and added driver control!

-Less body roll means more traction, faster cornering speeds, and increased driver confidence.
-Polyurethane bushings produce crisp response on turn-in.

Progress Anti-roll bars are cold-formed in-house using our custom-built precision bending equipment. Both laser-cut and CNC bar ends are MIG welded in place using a precise fixture for an exact fit.

Yes they do have OEM sway bars.

Plus is this is larger to reduce body roll

Anti-sway bars go by many names. Sometimes they are referred to as anti-roll bars, roll bars, or sway bars...but they all do the same exact thing: tie the left and right suspension together so that the car corners flatter.

The sway bar is basically a spring that mounts to the left and right suspension somewhere, then is secured to a solid part of the chassis. It works like a torsion bar, by twisting. Naturally, a larger bar is going to be harder to twist so it is desirable to upgrade the sway bar from stock size to improve handling.

Why only the rear??????

The rear sway bar is the most commonly upgraded suspension part in a front-wheel drive car, after shocks and springs. The rear sway bar helps make up for FF cars' tendency to push, or understeer, into corners. Upgrading the rear sway bar noticeably improves handling on the TSX without compromising ride quality. This part is easily the most Bang for the Buck you are going to get out of your TSX suspension...at least it was on the 1g TSX...and just about any other Honda we've worked on for that matter.

yeah I was surprised to see that the tsx came with factory strut bar and sway bar, although it's not as strong, it's still better than nothing (that my old cars had)

Yes more cars are coming with strut braces now. But Sway bars are very common. It would be more weird for a car not to come with them really now-a-days.
