Description
Whiteline BMF57Z provides front 27mm heavy duty adjustable blade sway bar for 07-09 Mazdaspeed3 / Mazda 3 MPS.
How It Works
The sway bar contributes roll stiffness by resisting differences in suspension movement across the axle. Its effect depends on diameter, construction, mounting geometry and effective lever length. A change at one axle can alter understeer/oversteer balance; diameter alone does not establish a percentage increase in stiffness or guarantee more grip.

Installation & Selection
