Suspension upgrade questions.

my suspension is completely stock with 16 inch wheels and 245 tires (filled at 45psi), i just took it autoXing for the first time. i noticed in the high speed gradual turns my front wheels felt like they was sliding out and hoping. when exiting the skid pad and getting on the gas the cars front would hop and slide strait instead of the rear swinging around. i plan to still drive my car on the street, strip and autox. its not my daily driver just a play toy.

lower your air pressure, it is way to high. it should be about 30 psi. you should change rims and tires. go with 275 and 17s would be a good start. 245's are way too small for autox.
