When is a XXmm diameter hollow bar not a XXmm hollow bar?

The Z/28 bar is smaller in diameter than the 1LE bar, but it is dimensionally the same otherwise and will fit. The rubber bushings for the 5th Gen Camaro bars are NOT glued in.

To compensate for the built in understeer with the staggered ZL1 wheels and tires you should look for a 4 to 5mm difference in bar diameter.

Rear Bar Diameter less Front Bar Diameter = 4 of 5mm
