Today at the track, with my new Hoosier A6's, I was lifting the inside front tire. I had installed 180 lb springs, took off the rear sway bar and tightened up the front 19mm Tarrett just a little. Everyone at the track told me that I needed beefier springs in the back. Well, I have 220 lbs springs, shall I try them? Shall I leave the sway bar off? Should I soften or tighten the front sway bar? Oh, I am running 205/15 on 5.5 rims. I am looking at 7" rims to get the patch better. Any other recommendations?

If the car feels balanced I wouldn't really worry about it as its quite common. What size torsion bars are you running? I'm running 22 mm torsion bars with a 19mm swaybar on full stiff and 250 pound springs in the rear. My car is just a touch tail happy but doesn't lift the inside front as much as it used to with the 180 pounders.
