All moving vehicles have stability issues. I presume the assertion is that making aerodynamic improvements decreases stability? I'd need to see a citation on that.

Lowering will improve stability, barring ground strikes. Airdams anecdotally improve stability. NASCAR roof fences spoil lift when you're sideways.

I can't think of a counterexample.
