16 or 19mm for Honda City gm6

[ben18181]

Hi guys. I have a Honda City gm6 2014 v spec. Want to know 16mm or 19mm Ultra racing anti roll bar works better for my car as i feel the car floating during highway drive. My car is all stock and tyre is cc6. I am not a fast driver and I just want my car to be stable when I am on highway.

The purpose of the ARB is to prevent or lesson body roll in corners. If you are driving on a straight highway, the floaty feeling is caused by tyres, wheels, suspension only. Adding a thicker ARB isn't going to do much other than emphasize on bumps on the road.

It's like all the big-guns here have said - start with the most obvious and potentially the cheapest (in the long run) choice - change your tyre size. If you have the budget go change to lighter and maybe slightly larger rims. If I'm not mistaken the GM6 comes with 16" rims - so that's plenty big already. Maybe you can go 205/45/16 tyre size.

If after that it's still floaty - then look at your suspension/spring setup.

compared to 2nd gen vios, this city has firm suspension...hahah

besides, assuming the car everything stock, better tyre is noticeable upgrade vs stock tyre.

Can city 16inch rim go 205? Because best for 6jj is 195 right

Is the upgrade of 185 to 195 difference noticeable?

Your OEM size is 185/55R16? If yes, change to 195/50R16 and use mid to performance tyres. Your CC6 are entry level tyres....
