First of all the Versa is my fiancees car that she bought new back in 08. I am actually a Volkswagen enthusiast and can't say that im in love with the handling of the versa compared to my GTI or some of the other sportier cars I have had. It is an awesome economy car though. I will say that.

I recently sold my GTI and bought an 06 Titan crewcab as we really needed a truck. I have a longer commute so now im driving the Versa everyday and the handling of the Versa is driving me crazy. I am about to buy tires and was wondering what the widest and tallest tire I can buy is to give a little wider base and fill up some wheel gap? The car has the 15" alloy wheels.
Also, I don't want to lower this car at all so would anyone recommend sway bars or anything else to help with handling and sway while retaining the stock height?

Thanks for any help and I look forward to exploring the site some more. I know how valuable the VW forums have been for me and look forward to this forum now. :bigthumb: 2

Welcome aboard!
I have had the ultra racing front and rear underbraces and rear sway and front strut tower bars on my cube before and it def makes a difference. Also wider wheels/tires will help also.
