Double wishbone suspension is the best setup because it reacts to bodyroll less then any other type of independant suspension, they also let you have a large amount of vertical travel without the wheels angle (camber) being changed, the C5 corvette fo example, it has 0 camber change through 95% of its vertical travel, it uses a double wishbone setup. the other types of independant suspensions are trailing & semi trailing arm, swing axle, and multi link, they just use different ways of controlling the wheel and how they attatch to the structure of the car.
