Sell it to some other poor sucker?
Actually, make sure the tires are at their proper inflation, don't overload it, drive it sensibly, and increase the track width - but w/o wheel spacers, or wheels with too little backspacing

There is no doubt in my mind the best and easiest thing to do is to increase the tread. This is easily done by getting a set of wheels with a greater offset,that is they stick out past the fenders further. This lowers the center of gravity for the vehicle and makes it less likely to tip or rollover.

Hey Grannywagon. 
Here is a page that will help you understand the roll over prob..
I just found it and I pass it along.. The problem is called Friction Roll.
This page will not help you solve it but you will better understand the prob.
I tink its called edumication? Ain't it?

BIIs are more likely to roll when on stock 205 tires. Put a set of bigger tires on and they instantly become more stable. Besides, it's pretty hard to roll 'em unless you drive it like a Viper, or try to make a 90-degree turn in reverse at 15mph.
