Ive noticed in the last couple of months or so that my car has suddenly loosened up in the corners, it used to feel really tight and remain mega flat through the corners yet lately i go round corners at about 20/25mph and it feels like the body roll is really bad.

What could be causing this? Its a fiesta st mk7 and is currently on eibach lowering springs.

Its gone from planted to rolling in about 3000 miles, it does get pushed hard in the corners.

Tyres or geometry (unless something is worn or broken).

You could try a 4 wheel alignment (done by someone who knows what they are doing).

It can make the world of difference.
I only had all of this checked about 6 months ago to be honest and the handling itself is still reliable it just rolls all over.
