supposedly lower control arms work wonders as far as hooking up. they are relatively cheap and there isn't really a loss in drive-ability. drag springs are going to give you a very uncomfortable ride. they are made to really transfer weight to the rear tires.

Next summer looking to go with:
Bilstien shocks + struts, Lowering springs (brand still TBD (any suggestions?)), MM CC plates, front + rear sway bars, subframes, and upper and lower control arms.
Time to make the pony ride some rails

Yeah new upper and lower rear control arms and a panhard bar should get the rear sticking better...if money is no object get a 5 link setup from Steeda, to me a car should not just go straight, it must handle the curves as well.
