I'm surprised you didn't install an adjustable PHB when you lowered the car! You should have one of them at least 
.
What do you want to do with your car now? Street? Strip? Road course? Auto-x?
"What next" is pretty broad. If you need truly better handling, you may need more camber, so go with the UMI K-member, w/longer slots for more adjustment and ~20 lbs lighte for less weight on the front. You could substitute the PHB for a fancy new Watt's link (they sound pretty impressive). You can try playing with the shock settings.
You've already got a decent suspension setup, so now you need to decide what's missing, or what ELSE you want to do with the car, or what else you want the CAR to do

. im thinkn that i may do the panhard next. Im runin 315's, and i can tell that they're not centered. Its just a DD, and i visit the strip every so often. I also enjoy carving corners on country roads. Its no race car. But what kind of benefits do you get from the tubular K?

I noticed that you are wondering what the next mod should be. Like mentioned above. I would suggest going with a Adjustable pan hard bar to allow you to recenter the rear end due to it shifts when a vehicle is lowered. And also a set of lower control arm relocation brackets to eliminate any wheel hoping issues and increase your traction performance that you may have lost when the vehicle was lowered as well so how you can adjust your lower control arm more parallel with the surface. Below are a few links to show you what UMI Performance has to offer!
