Has anyone done any handeling upgrades? I want to eliminate body roll has anyone tried sway bars? Which ones will fit 2012 v6? Its going to be more for takin it to a track. Do not necessarily want to do coil overs due to it is also my daily driver unless someone knows of good coilover that can be safely used on public roads with gettin messed up.

Lowering springs, to lower the center of gravity, also looks much better. Set of after market sway bars. I went with Eibach for both of these items and caught them on sale and with rebates. Both shipped to the house for $440. Then I went with some Pedders subframe inserts, steering rack bushing and radius rod bushings, all shipped to the house for $317, caught a couple sale items. Lastly I added some BMR trailing arms, and bushings, along with BMR toe rods, shipped to the house for $225. Total handling cost just under a Grand. Handles like it is on rails now too. That and I have 275/40/20's in all 4 corners.
