Hey does anyone who has or had an 8th gen si have any recommendations for a rear strut bar? I lowered my car and put new tires on it and went with a 225 wide tire and now it scrubs when I turn. I've rolled the fenders as much as I could myself. I can take it to a shop and see if they can be pushed out more. I believe the car just has too much flex in it and would like to stiffen it up some. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
 
I would go any adjustable one - its a threaded rod. This way you can adjust the preload when the tires off the ground...

I'm not really sure if the strut bar would do much tho... your problem is with body roll stiffness and not strut tower flex. Either go with a larger rear sway bar or add negative camber to the rear
 
Thanks. I'm at -1 degree right now in the rears. I'll look into the sway bars
