since I put the new rims on my car I noticed that whenever I change lanes the rears end feels really sloppy, it like takes time before it gets in the lane. I don't know where to start looking. I did have this problem before I put the rims but then when I installed the sway bar it did fix it little bit. Anyway I would appericate it if you guys çan help me out.

 

Weight = sway = shift...

To eliminate sway you must not only stiffen the chassis itself but what the chassis rides on, thus springs and struts or coilovers

Strut bar and Sway bar + Shocks & Springs

 

my car does have 175000 km on it. but i thought fd is suppose to be good at handing.. my 240sx has 330000 km on it i nevr had that problem..

 

I would start by jacking up one of the rear wheels. Once its off the ground see use this guide by Max Cooper:

To diagnose the bushings on your car, jack it up and wiggle the wheel around. If you can steer the wheel, you might need new toe links, too. If it moves any other directions, you probably have some bad pillow *****.

I would also check your shocks.

 

Have you had a GOOD alignment recently?

 

too many things to look at, but given wheel change,

i'd look at wheel bearing or alignment is good idea too.
