Default cops stop me because "in the corner my wheels almost get of the ground". I need bigger sway bars...
I go in the corner ~40mph and right out of the corner I see a cop driwing towrd me. It scared him enough to swirl from the left to the right lane. He stoped me and said, that my wheels almost got of the ground. well I have 225 P03 tires and they did not sqieak or exibit any sliding so I was totally in the "safe" zone and under control.

In any case, I have Bilstein/H&R suspension and now I want to install bigger sway bars, so I would not lean at the corner that hard. Any sugessions?

VW Golfs do lift a wheel in tight cornering.

Default Can a cop write a ticket for lifting a wheel in a turn if you're under the speed limit?
Is that considered reckless driving?

no it is "careless driving" - minor offence. "recless" is major offence.
