   i recently lowered my car by 35mm, i then started getting a lot of roll in the tyres and bought a lower front strut brace and it made a massive difference in handling, especially when throwing it into corners, but i want to improve it even more now.........
   
   .............so does anyone know if i was to get an upper strut brace, will that make a difference at all or should i not bother??
   
   cheers

   yes a upper brace coupled with a lower brace will improve it over the lower brace alone

   definitely. most people tend to just go for upper straight off because of the advantages. with upper and lower combined it will be pretty mental m8

   get some new uprated suspension bushes too, upper and lower braces are meant to be excellent together so i hear

   the better your suspension the greater the loads through the chassis and the greater the benifit of a strut brace
