    I am having an issue with the stability of the car when at high speed and in particularly decelerating, I am careful on braking beacsue of locking up, but the rear is just skiddish and the front end is super grippy whily my rear isnt. The rear will just spin out when turning on a high traction surface. I have stock tires in the front with dboot hoon tires on the rear. I have changed the camber to combat the body roll when cornering, but it is still hard to drive. Is there a way to tune the rear suspension specifically to change that? Do you know of a way to tune the rear toe or caster or just to have more adjustability in the shock/ camber link placement? The wheel is also wobbly even when every bolt is tight so that maybe the problem.
