You can always stiffen up the front swaybar to help compensate for the added oversteer. Besides, if you chrome plated the new swaybar, you could show it off to all your buddies at the show

personally, i probably won't ever "upgrade" the factory wheels on a car ever again. it's a huge cost and produces little, if any, results.

a guy i know has a twin turbo stealth, he had stock 18 inch wheels that came on the car, but he thought they were heavy, and bought another set of 18 inch rims for racing
his 1/4 ET is consistantly .2+ seconds faster with the racing wheels on, it still may not be worth the money, but it can make a difference
