The 24mm apparently is better, BUT more chance and less warning of oversteer, (according to what I read, before fitting my 22mm ARB).

If I was you, I would make a cup of tea, then use the search function.

On the road you won't notice the difference. I don't see the need for a 24mm if you are not on a circuit.

I disagree - the 24mm is noticeably different, even to the 23mm Novitec I was running before

On the road, the turn-in is much sharper, at the expense of straight-line stability. On track, lift-off oversteer is there for the asking. Hugely entertaining and once its understood, it would probably make for some very quick laptimes

On the road, it would probably be good for a weekend blasting car. However, mine is a 30,000 mile a year commuting and business car, so I'm going back to the 23mm to regain some of the 'planted' feel I had before.

That said, I also have a lot of other handling mods and the 24mm may have been a step too far - on another car with a less aggressive setup, it may be less pointy on the road
