Below is my catalog of aftermarket anti-roll bars (also known as ARBs, sway bars, "sways").
The numbers were calculated based on the manufacturer's claims such as "+123% stiffness compared to stock (2013-2016 OEM bar)". Please let me know if you can find more trustworthy numbers! Other contributions to this page are also very much welcome.
Each list is ordered roughly from the softest to stiffest options. All values are provided in lbs/in (shame on me), rounded to the nearest integer.
