yea, toyota I know what you are saying.. I did upgrade the rims.. I got ProLine 928 series 14x6's and I got uniroyal Tiger Paw Touring H series tires.. that's a step up from the 13's that come stock on the car.
I also installed a front sway bar from an '89 GTS coupe.. and I really notice a HUGE difference in the turning ability of the car.. back when I was still on the stock tires and rims.. which the backs were going bald..
But I noticed that going into a turn.. like before I would have to steer into the turn a lot more.. But this time when I was going around and I went to compensate and steer into the turn like normal.. the car was actually steering HARDER and pulling into the turn and I nearly wacked the curve! lol
So the sway makes a HUGE difference and now once I come back from vacation I will get my rolla out and take it for her first drive with the new rims/tires on.. should be nice!
So you are right.. I am going to get my car out there and learn it better and join a car club that does off-roading and road track racing and get respect.. then my next upgrade in handling is gonna be to drop the car about 1" in the front and like 2" in the back, since the back sits higher and bouncier than the front, and get a bigger rear sway bar.. should be going strong then.
