Good job Dan! You make me miss my wheels. But the FN's are probably the coolest wheels to have with that camera angle.

What size rear sway bar are you running? You may have told me but I forgot.

What steps have you taken (if any) to prevent the rear inner tire lift?

Run different levels of damping front to rear and that was more to get it to the rear of the car to rotate better. When I replace the ball joints and get another alignment I'll play around with spring preload some. I only had the rear inner tire lift once and that was when the killboy.com photographer got the picure of it.

I do want to get a larger front sway and see how that works out.

Also found that running the car with less damping seems to help the car rotate more and its more comfortable driving. Entry speeds are slightly lower but I can exit with more speed.

It just seems that the coil-overs when too stiff make the car unsettled and very hard to control, I actually have more confidence with the car running very little damping and more PSI in the tires than the other way around.
