look into getting camber plates to be able to run more negative camber, also look into increasing the presure in the front tires because most of the roll could be coming from the tires, if u have adjustable struts u might want to try setting them on a stiffer setting. also when taking the turns try jerking the wheel a bit if you're not getting the grip u want, it helps gain more momentum towards where u want the car to go, there's many more things that can be done like getting stiffer springs etc... but I wouldn't go there if I were u. You can't get rid of the body roll 100%, and its not really a huge deal, u'll learn how to live with it after u get some more experience, I used to be paranoid about these things too lol, just get out there and have fun
Not to but in and answer for him but the k-sports do have camber plates but my toe links bottomed out at 2 degrees of camber with the k-sports. Also making the struts stiffer has nothing to do with the amount of roll in a corner. To Boggie1688 i wouldn't turn the front shocks all the way up. When I did I was having a lot of problems with wheelspin. there was too much rebound to let the tire back down correctly. IMO Jerking the wheel is definatly a bad thing. Smooth=Fast.
