They don't suck outright, but only on a relative scale. It's silly to expect more from a set of all-seasons.

Man, I saw the wheel gap on the new RS and memories of excessive body-roll came flooding back to me. RS suspension is incredibly mushy. Many of the WRX/STi owners here won't really have quite the same feel for this, as they start out with stiffer stock springs than the RS, but I can't stress enough how big an improvement it will be to lower the vehicle and stiffen it up a bit. A KYB AGX strut and Ground Control spring combo would be a great start, with a RSB and some summer rubber making a good follow-up in a few months.
