just to throw a spanner in the works here as some of you may know i now have 14" steelys on my car now... which means i can get it nice and low... the problem with the small wheels is that i felt like i had some understeer... so i reinstalled my gsi anti-roll bar last night... and there is no under steer whatsoever now...

so i'm not to sure if theres a standard setup really... i think everyone should think of there car individually to see whats best...

thats pretty thick perhaps a less agressive ARB on the back might help any understeer probs. Besides, going straight over roundabouts is quite fun!

its worse over here, hardly any roundabouts anywhere, but when you do come across one, it happens to be just beyond a crest of a hill in a 70 zone, with a tiny little roundabout sign 10ft from it
