Actually, understeer goes away with the proper sways, and underbracing in the rear. I am going to 14k and 16k accordingly....

I'm not a fan of sways for autox, hurts transitions too much. Use of springs only allows more droop and helps keep the inside rear down too. Interesting though, those rates are about what I want to switch to. I had 10k frt and 12k rr and the balance was great, unfortunately its too soft for my current tire setup and the 12k frt & rr just is too pushy. Only real problem is my RA's would need a revalve and I don't feel like sending them out. Have you had your Flex's reworked for the high rates?

Maybe......If you want it to stop pushing, just tighten up the rear, not necessarily sways, bracing works good, and will allow the car to rotate easier.
