So I’ve noticed on some cars, especially BMWs, that when I try to power out of a turn the car always wants to spin out. It’s frustrating because I have a number of cars that don’t do this. I mostly race in B and A class. I brake before a corner at the same points the AI cars do and try to get back on power once I hit the midpoint of the corner. With some cars I have to wait until I completely exit a corner and get straight before I can accelerate again.
When I upgrade my cars, I always get all the top mods for tires, aero, suspension, and drive line before I add power, in that order. I can make any adjustments, I just can’t keep the rear end from coming out. I’ve played with the settings for roll bars and aero, going so far as to set the bar to max stiff on the front and max soft on the rear with max cornering aero on both ends. I haven’t played too much with alignment, because I’m not sure which adjustments will keep the rear stable without losing turn-in.
Anyone know what I need to do to get these cars to behave?
I haven’t driven the many of the BMW’s yet but this is what I would try out;
- Try the roll bars in the rear being a bit stiffer and the front a little looser than the rear.
- Next lower spring stiffness in the rear and tighten the front.
- Edit; Tire pressure, start with 29 front and 31 rear and alter it by 1 however you think works best. Use small increments when you find a good spot
- Lastly change the bump/rebound settings. Raise bump stiffness to be atleast half of what rebound is.
try not to have too much bump stiffness though or you’ll find it hard to glide into turns. same goes for rebound stiffness.
Ex: if rebound is 12, make bump somewhere around 6.0.
Hope this helps

Could be a lot of issues from suspension setup to driving style - any car can handle well into and out of corners with the right tuning and a driving style that doesn’t exceed available grip. My preference would be to throw out everything and start over with an eye toward weight balance and keeping the tires in contact with the road.
If you want to look for a simpler solution without changing everything else you did, just reduce rear rebound damping. Your current rear damper settings are too high, resulting in weight transfer from rear to front too early when exiting corners. Softer rear rebound will give you more weight over the rear wheels longer. Try reducing rear rebound in 0.1 increments until you get something closer to the performance you want.

try putting up the telemetry and taking the car for a drive …
try to get the camber neutralised as you corner (flicking between -ve & +ve) - the tyre should be in optimal contact with the road
Toe- the description in the side panel of the tuning window should help you - you want to reduce oversteer in the rear
look at the temperature … if the rears are getting too hot … drop the pressure
make only one adjustment at a time so you can feel the effect … if it is worse … put it back 
most of my tunes for BMWs are drift tunes so absolutely no use to you
