Miata sway bars reduce body lean in turns, which helps keep the Miata tire contact patches flat on the ground to improve maximum corning ability. Also, when Miata body lean is reduced, the Miata reacts faster to steering inputs, resulting in a Miata that feels sportier, less sloppy. Miata sway bars are often the enthusiast's first Miata suspension modification because the improvement in handling is dramatic, installation is easy, and the cost is low.
