wheel slop :(

hello

i was wondering if anyone had any suggestions about tightening up the play in my steering... i am currently on winter tires and am sure that this will improve with my summer tires but is there anything else i can adjust to help this situation?

i have tightened my coilovers to increase the spring stiffness (stiffer in the rear than in the front)... i have an upper tie bar (front, back) and rear lower...

will a front 'H' brace/bar help?

what else could i do with parts or mechanical adjustments?

oh yeah... its a '99 SI

thanks!

The culprit here are the winter tires and their very soft sidewalls. You can stiffen up the chasis as much as you want but it's not going to make a difference cause the tires will still be mushy.

About the only thing you can do that will make a noticeable different is to increase the tire pressure.

cool thanks!... i was kinda thinking this but i've only had the car since last november and am still getting familiar with it (and honda's in general)... if this weather keeps up i'll have my summer tires on for the next event in two weeks!!!

:D

thanks again!
