OVERVIEW
H&R's matched front & rear sway bar set increases torsional stiffness over the factory bars on the xDrive-equipped F30 sedan and F32-family coupe/convertible/Gran Coupe, reducing body roll and sharpening turn-in without giving up the ride quality xDrive owners expect. The front bar is two-hole adjustable for street or track roll-stiffness tuning.
H&R sells this as a single part number across the xDrive 320i/328i/330i/340i (F30) and 428i/430i (F32/F33/F36) — these share the same front/rear suspension geometry and subframe mounting points on the xDrive F3x platform.

Installation

Notes
- Fitment correction from the original bundled listing: the xDrive H&R part 72878-6 is confirmed by Turner Motorsport and Vivid Racing to cover 320i/328i/330i/340i xDrive (F30) and 428i/430i xDrive (F32/F33/F36) — the four-cylinder-plus-340i xDrive grouping. It does NOT include the 335i xDrive or 435i/440i xDrive, which use the separate H&R part 72878-3 (not part of this build). The original draft's assumed model list conflated these two distinct H&R parts; this listing uses the corrected, source-verified fitment.
- xDrive-only fitment. H&R sells a separate part (72878-5) for the RWD version of these same chassis — confirm drivetrain before ordering.
- hrsprings.com's product catalog is JavaScript-only and could not be crawled directly; the part number below is confirmed against this SKU's own Shopify variant field and cross-checked against Turner Motorsport and Vivid Racing listings for the same H&R part.
