Default need help on suspension ideas

hello
i am thinking about taking off my Daizen sways. the question is , will the STOCK sway help on improving my ride quality??
now i have TOMs coilovers and EVERY single possible braces on the car now.
i know that the cornering will have more sways if i have the sway bars taken off, but how about straight line ride?
by the way i am riding on 19 inch rims with low profile tires. i might consider changing the tires to a little fatter sidewall setup too...
suggestions are welcome!

if i were you i would take out the 6 links first, and then rear brace, and then the front, and then the two top tower braces. that's the order i would go. and then the doluck too

after that i would take out the sways and then the coilover
