i just put on Tein S springs on my 8 and noticed this dramatic change in handling. Ok heres the questions, lets say im driving straight and turn the wheel like a millimeter to the left and the car turns alot more then it should is that called oversteer or is there another terminology for it? is there something i should do or can do to fix this? or is this how it should be and i have to get use to it?

its doing this when i turn right and left, its just not one sided i shouldve said this earlier. im saying this just in case you guys think its just going to the left and are not understanding what im talking about, so is it still the samething and i need an alignment?

By installing the lowering springs it has affected your wheel alignment. Your car's alignment is now better set up to turn the car, but worse for going straight. As set from the factory, the 4 wheels on cars are designed to track a car in a straight line, for safety and tire wear reasons. With this new position, you will actually find that the car will now turn much better. The downside is that it becomes more sensitive to steering movement and uneven pavement. There is nothing wrong with this, and if you want to have fun on the track, it's better left the way it is now. You will however notice slightly higher tire wear on the inside edges of your tires, so frequent rotation is required.
