I can see how spoilers help with straightline stability, but I am at a loss as to how they can improve handling in a cross wind.
I am also willing to bet that a fair proportion of handling issues at speed are down to poor geometry settings, I would be inclined to eliminate any steering play, check caster, camber, toe and tyre pressures, and optimise all these first, then if the car is still wandering bolt on spoilers as a last in line measure. Also if a car has any amount of nose up attitude due to saggy rear springs, then that is almost certainly going to give issues.
