Cornering help

What can be done to the G to improve the handling?
I was thinking of a front strut bar and maybe rear controls arms
but what else can be done except lowering the car?
My G is an AWD 2008...

I'd say if you want instant handling improvement get Sway bars.

They'll give you a huge improvement in handling and for a decent price, I'd say go for Hotchkis.

if you want more then do the following:
-Coilovers
-Better tires and maybe change the rims
-GT spec braces.

The strut bar will make close to no difference whatsoever, I'm actually considering removing mine as it isn't doing much other than making the engine bay look nice.

I guess you're stuck with GT Spec braces for now

Your best bet is tires/wheels. Get more and stickier rubber on the road.
