Suspension mods resulting in under/over steer
I've read that some suspension mods like adding stiffer spings and sways can result in under steer and over steered suspension if all components are not matched for compatability.
Trying to learn more about this, but haven't had any luck with the search function on this topic. Is this a subjective determination made by a specialist or can it actually be measured on a bench? TIA and Best,

Re: Suspension mods resulting in under/over steer (AU N EGL)
This seems to be a common question, there should be a Sticky thread or C5 suspension area on what various suspension Mods do to cars. i.e.
Upgraded to just Z06 sways and the car is _________
Upgraded to Full zo6 and car is _________
Lowered car and needed aligment b/c (less camber,more camber) I am still looking for the answer on wether lowering increases camber and if that is a good thing)
