: I have a lowered, but otherwise stock, 1987 325e, and want to know the best mods I can do to make my bimmer better at cornering. Is the answer bigger rear tires, a spoiler, tire pressure?
: Help please!......

hi, once owned a grand prix.. and it cornered ok.... then one day i decided to buy some rims.. these rims already came with tires but they were 50% wider than the ones already on the car.... 225/50/16 (size i had) it's like night and day, i mean where i used to brake on conering......no more it's like the car and the road were one in da same... it hugged it so tight that when i was speeding and cornered u don't even shift inside u'r car.... lets put it like this when i get my next car .... i still have those rims and tires.. waiting and begging to roll with me... hoped i helped u out... later
