Default cornering problem

okay first off i dont have the time to do two hours of research on my problem like i used to so im just asking now. on my electric tmaxx when i go fast through a turn i normally have a tire lift off the ground it looks stupid and it almosts rolls at times. what do i do to fix the problem? i have only 2 dual rate shocks but they arent on there. could those help my problem?

Sway bars should solve that issue. I don't have experience for a tmaxx but a quick search should find some for you to buy. I would go with something adjustable.

Sway bars, stiffer springs, lower COG, lower profile tires will all help. At the end of the day however, it's still a MT, and they're not exactly designed to take turns at high speeds, so you can only expect to get so much out of it.

Ride height ok? lower arms parallel to the ground?
What springs are you running? likely a softer spring would help
What position are you running your shocks at on the arms and towers? the more angle the better the high speed turns will be
What weight diff oil are you running?
Have you adjusted your camber? 1.5 degrees negative works well for me.
