Widening the rear tires for better stability on hillsides?

not going to gain much as stability is governed by the height of the venter of gravity of the vehicle
Lowering the vehicle i9s a better option
fitting wide rims is another pointless exercise as it get to a point where causes early bearing and axle failure for the added loads
best is to get a complete axle that has a wider track than what you have and going down that track
however if you persist, get rims that have a large offset for the rim and use spacers under the rims on the hub studs

1993 pontiac firebird 5.7 liter I just replaced both rear shocks because it would bottom out if I pulled out to fast or hit bumps. It did help it a little but it is still bottoming out. My question is...

no --it is bottoming out because the travel in the shocks is not correct for the vehicle ride height. The springs may be weak and need replacing. if you have altered the ride height at all then there will be problems bottoming out .

My 2001 Dodge Stratus uses struts only instead of shocks. I recently had struts and stabilizer bars installed on the rear of my car. My question is why do I still get the same results when driving, like...

If the struts are new the springs may need to be replaced. These struts should have a spring around them then there is the leaf spring that could be the issue. You could try using spring stiffiners to tighten the suspension up but I would discuss this with my mechanic first. it really sounds like they replaced the struts with a standard strut assembly and what you wanted was the sport suspension strut.

The rear of my truck drops and the ride gets real bumpy. Also my stabilizer track light turned on saying it needs to be serviced

Hi, those have air bags (air ride) and one or both of the air bags has a hole in it and is leaking out,they have a pump that fills them up with air but when the bag goes bad the pump will fill it,then it leaks out, and back and forth. you just need to replace the faulty suspension air bag. or e-bay sells kits to eliminate the air ride and replace with springs. good luck. yz-maniac....

Service ride and service stability what does that mean?

this means that you have a fault with your stability control system. the stability control is designed to prevent a rollover it detects body roll when you are driving the ride control is the air suspension sytem this keeps ride hieght the same based on how wieght is in the vehicle. check the links that connect the switches to the suspension you may have one dissconnected (these links wear out over time you night have to replace them) there is one on each wheel postion if you need anything else let me know

Service ride control

It's time to replace the rear shocks. There expensive like $250.00 and up each and if your not going to be towing, most people replace them with a good set of shocks and not the factor OEM air shock which you have for the auto ride height system. If your going to just buy and good set of normal gas shocks. Pull the fuse to     the auto ride system so the light on the dash is off.
Good luck and hope this helps. The auto ride system was there for towing heavy trailers to keep the ride hight. The rear suspension is actually soft so you have a soft ride and the shock keeps it from bouncing. If your not towing heavy or carring heavy loads, you should be fine with a conventional gas shocks and you may find it better. I found the Monroe Reflex shocks to be more stable then the OEM around corners and highway driving.

Hard ride in rear 04 towncar

It looks almost like a little shock absorber and it is located above the rear differential. 

the ride height  is adjustable by adding or reducing the amount of air in the tires, ergo, any damage would occur in the tires, not the car.
