I know the standard answers on how to improve the handling but what have the people here done? Tires, coil overs, sway bars, springs, shocks, strut braces? What has been done?
If just springs, what spring rate?
Brands?
The other side of it, what has been done that didn't work well?
What brands to avoid?

I don't want to try to feel like a go cart or a track use only car, I just want to get the best handling I can.

spring. two major brand people use H&R and Eibach.. I had H&R and i liked it There is sport and race but if you want your car to ride good and comfortable then sport

coilover, KW JIC and Bilstein coilovers are the most common ones.

sway bar you can get h&R sway bar.

i have JIC magic and handles really great on my 530
