It helps for tuning the cars handling. The softer setup will let the body roll more as the sway bar has more play in it. Medium is alittle stiffer and stiff is the stiffest. Usually to help eliminate understeer you want the rear abit stiffer then the front, but this also causes the rear to be less "planted" and slide out easier as the body is not rolling asmuch. To start off I recommend setting them to med front med rear. Then after you have felt how the car handles at the limit you can soften or harder to your desire. Hopes that makes sense .
