It made a SIGNIFICANT difference for me, since my truck ('92 v6 2wd)
didn't even come with a front swaybar. Just the front bar is awesome
compared to before, the rear is going to be stupendous!

My suspension is stock height, but my tires are 235/70 R15's... I still
doubt being at stock tire width would help much. There's an excess two
inches (approximately,) that sticks out beyond the center bushings on
either side. IMO, they didn't measure things very well. Reducing my
turning radius by this much is not an acceptable compromise. It's
basically impossible to park in any kind of tight situation.
