How do you correct too much oversteer in the handling? My rear shocks are getting pretty worn while the fronts are almost new, would this be causing an oversteer problem? To help you more this is how the car is set up: Lowered uprated springs, 20mm front arb, 14.5mm rear arb, stock Boge shocks, 16 inch wheels with 205's at front and 225's on back. :?

the worn rear shocks will definitely cause looseness out back.

however all e30s oversteer randomly in the wet, but good shocks and an lsd will help u control the slide
