the wind pushes me like a big bully
 

what can i do to the car to cut down on being tossed about by high winds on the highway...any realistic opinions welcome. (my tire pressure is fine and checked regularly, everything is stock on the car)

thanks

mike

find a different highway to drive on if the wind is pushing you around that bad. Since the car is light, it will get knocked around. Possible tire upgrade from stock to something a little wider to give you more traction on the road could help.

Lowering the car a little will reduce the height of the side profile of the car. Stiffer sway bars will reduce the amount that the wind causes your car to "roll" due to the windforce.

I haven't put the swaybars on my car yet, but after I lowered it and went from 15" to 17" wheels/tires I noticed a dramatic improvement when things get windy.

The light weight of this car does make it susceptable to wind. (Especially when passing an 18-wheeler)
