wind pushes my car

i was drivin down route 78 and it's pretty damn windy today and it felt like i was all over my lane because i could really feel the wind. i can feel the wind sometimes but when its real windy..damn..i feel like it picks my car up and shifts it over. is there any way to help with the wind pushing my car around? and does anybody else feel it? im gonna be getting ST sway bars this month and im hoping that will help but im not sure. also it sounds like wind is coming into my car through the top of my windshield, its tolerable but its really taking away from the ride quality. but then again so is the stiffness of the neuspeed springs and the kyb-gr2s (which im extremely dissapointed with but just too lazy to buy AGX's for $300). btw, anybody sellin eibach sportline and agx combo?

Our cars do have a strong wind-grabbing profile. The high winds will push you around a little, just keep both hands on the wheel. As for the sway bars, they will probably give you a bit more stiffness in the ride. And for the wind noise. Has your windshield ever been replaced. If so, they did not seal it properly if you are getting alot of noise.

Good luck.

especially on highways

Drop your car, and get some sways it'll help reduce the swaying in the wind a bit
