The tires are the most important part of the combination as well as your alignment and balancing the components. Bigger and stiffer is not always better(no funny comments,heehee). Poly bushings are OK but for the ultimate in cornering spherical bearings are the way to go. They allow the suspension to perform bind-free Check out our sponsor, Spohn. You may want to go with some LCA relocation brackets as well. Have fun!

I think your car will have better cornering capabilities than it did in stock form.

Is that what you wanted to know?
