help with front end sliding
whenever the roads are wet ive have this problem when i turn about a 1/4 of a turn on the s/wheel my front wheels lose grip and slide. i can do it at virtually any speed though i dont try it at higher speed's. ive got koni externally adjustables and lowered king springs my rear wheels have fair bit of neg camber due to the lowereing of my car and my front have none. would having more neg camber on the front help the situation. even in the dry it feels like it losses front end grip on when driving it really hard.
anyone got any ideas on what could be causing it??
thanx madaz

Did you put the springs and shock on the car?
If so, was it understeering before?
Is it worse making a turn in one direction than in the other?
What are the spring rates front and rear?
Do you have the stock sway bars on the car?

i got a suspension place to put it all of it in.
dont know the spring rates.
it might be worse turning right.
my car has stock sway bars ill have to check the mounts out.
i dont have camber or carster plates.
could it be my tyres cuz im running the same brand: Falken but im using ze502's on the front and ze326's on the back. also when the guy did my suspension he told me he couldn't get the camber right on one side and i needed a camber pin to fix. also i needed an offset caster bush to stop my car pulling to the left. sorry i didn't post this earlier but it sliped my mind
