I say coilovers because they'll greatly improve your cornering. A sway bar is personally my next mod to further reduce body roll. But if you want to shorten your turning radius at high speeds, better tires are needed for traction. Don't quote me on these cause I'm just repeating the info I've gathered here on SL.

Hope that's what you're asking because your question is awkwardly worded

Uhm....I think the turning radius is defined as the radius of a turn when the wheel is maxed out in either direction at low speeds; like making a U-turn.

I dont think it has anything to do with a smooth ride..... you will probably have to change the steering rack and somehow alter the steering ratio.
