they help stop body roll must quality suspensions along with anti roll bars have very little body roll anway

always have a strut brace when fitting a bigger engine though ;)

Someone should put some strain gauges on parts of the corsa to see how much movement there is before and after.

as luca said

and have back suspension really stiff with tyres at a high psi so it skips round corners better.

just a complete better set up

wider wheels, uprated suspension, uprated anti-roll bars, strut brace, poly bushes ect

my corsa understeer really badly when i go around round da bouts, fair enough i tend to slow for them so that could be a solution, but would changing to top set of tyres help?
