So today after class theres this turn that takes me on the on ramp to 610. Well the light was green so i figured I could push my car little around the corner. Corner was semi sharp. I lowered my car on sprint springs with kyg gr2s. Well I only took the turn at about 40 mph and I had body roll like theres no tomorrow. I have the stock gt front strut bar and i know that does crap, but how can i eliminate this body roll. I know suspension technique sway bars will do, but will i also need the front and rear strut bars with the sway bars? Or can I just do the sway bars and not have to worry about the strut bars?

I think the biggest wheel size i would ever go would be 16s regardless of the wheel gap.

No, I upgraded to 16's with a smaller tire from 15's with a bigger tire. The difference right there was pretty huge. Can't wait to see what new springs/shocks will do. If I get enough Christmas $ I might even get some new sway bars. |
