I feel the higher tire pressure (not over max.) has helped me with the crosswinds. I don't think the stock tires are anywhere optimum but right now I'm not buying new ones. One problem with this thread is some people are trying to compare track/autocross handling with side wind handling and I think there's a major difference.....try putting a couple of your larger friends in the backseat and tell them to rock from side to side while you drive down the road---stiffness of tires and springs with the addition of sway bars are my best guess for curing the problem....now for track conditions its different---sometimes less stiff is a help for better traction and contact with the road.

Maybe I'm totally wrong but I just see too many differences and don't think tuning for one is always the same as tuning for the other.
