25.5mm H-sport bar here, 5 years of Canadian winters and the powdercoating is still intact.

Love that it has zerk fittings on the bushings, have never heard it squeak yet!

I put on a 19mm H&R a few months ago, but as part of complete suspension overhaul - Bilstein Sports, H&R springs, Helix lower control arms - so it's hard for me to narrow down the performance gains to any one component. I will say, however, that the H&R has absolutely no squeaking or other noise issues so far.

+1 for the ALTA Rear Bar. I'm biased I know, but have been running mine since 2003 and no issues with clunking, flaking etc. Both options (19mm or 22mm) work well and to help choose, don't hesitate to ring or e-mail or AIM or PM any of the ALTA staff and we can help you make the right choice for your driving style.

Best of luck to all making this choice. The handling gains are significant and worth the very reasonable effort to install.

As always questions are welcome!

Here is the Tarett bar. Its the one I have. It's pretty pricey but it has a huge adjustment range.
