Default suspension

my suspension is stock... I've been thinking about getting some Z06 bars.. but then realized theses are still considered stockers to someone... is there an upgrade to the z06's and who has the best (subjective i know)

Thanks guys

I went with Hotchkiss bars and Bilstiens. The H bars are the thicker than 06 bars and just below T1 bars. Bilstiens are great.
Can't go wrong.

I had the Z06 bars on my Coupe, and switched to the Hotchkiss. There isn't alot of difference, but there is some, especially on the track.
If you don't track the car, save the extra mony and just use the Z06 bars.

Now that you've asked that question, we have to ask what you plan on doing with the car?

Probably would want to do shocks with the bars to keep the suspension components matched.
