Ways to improve handling - FA 510s, what’s next?

I purchased some used FA 510s. Those are going on this week hopefully. Is there anything else I can do to improve the cars handling?
I have heard the Pierce Motorsports chassis bracing doesn’t help with FA 510s - not even the 6 point. Can anyone provide input? I was considering the racing package. My thought for the weakness of the car is that it’s pretty skinny. Is there anything I can do to improve this without ruining the daily drivability of the car?

edit: forgot to mention wheels and tires. Thats definitely an upgrade I’ll do that I’ve heard makes a big difference.

I'd say wheels and tires are the biggest handling (and general performance) upgrade you can make. Unless you want to just throw money at the thing, start there and identify what you don't like about the handling, and address the parts you don't like. Everything is a compromise, but these things are pretty sweet handling cars right out of the box (especially for the money).
