How is that possible?
Every time I tune any car, I lose traction.

My cars have no grip after tuning

It's because you're going faster and not adjusting your driving style. You need to brake sooner and be more prudent with the throttle.

On any car I put best parts, when I drive, my wheels are pale blue and driving is unbelievable 
I believe I have to get right settings, I guess.

If someone is managing to get soft tyres into the red and losing traction as a result, then sticking harder tyres in place of them is not going to help much, they will simply lose traction even quicker.
The OP need to post up an example of a car he is having problems with, complete with a list of parts fitted and settings, before anyone is going to be able to properly help.
Oh and a number of you in this thread appear to have forgotten a bit of the AUP...
AUP
...its not optional and you all agreed to it when you joined.
Always ensure you posts are in line with the AUP.

For example, I tuned Lambo SuperVeloce, all best tuning parts, ecu, exhaust, lsd ...
When I take it for a ride, driving is unbelievable. I just cannot handle it.
Is the solution in proper tuning of certain parts?

Can you please be more precise? What exactly happens with the car after tuning? Does it under- or oversteer? Are you going the same speed or quicker?

It would also help to tell us (after a parts list, and the characteristics it has after tuning) what you are changing on the setup.
It may also help to say what your driving aid settings are. Depending on your driving style, there is a big difference between ABS 1 and ABS 0 or TCS 1 and TCS 0, for instance.
Like what the poster above, oppositelock, said, my experiences have been that when you pump up the power you need to be much more gentle on the throttle. Just gun it and it's super easy to break those tires loose. Some of that can be lessened by the driving aids, if you're ok with using them (it seems to be quite a hot-button topic with some people.)

Ok, first thing first.
I always drive with TC=0 and ABS=1.
I used Racing Soft tires.
When I bought all tuning parts I did not change a thing. I just took it for a spin.
It oversteers, tires are pale blue and it happens a lot that they turn red.
When it was stock it was easy to handle, but not since I bought all tuning parts.
So I guess it is in the proper tuning settings of certain parts that I bought.
And yeah, car does go faster and all but it's hard to handle.

Yes I agree, but I've found that if you lose traction and your tyres go red then you'll just spin out, whereas if you lose traction then harder tyres give you a bit more of a chance to find some bite or feather the throttle a bit. however it does come down to driving style, i've found i've massively improved since changing my throttle to R2.
Ok as was mentioned above we really need you to tell us what car it is your wanting to drive. Then we need to see a list of settings susppention Etc. Oh and the amount of bhp its producing before we can help you solve the issue.

I will go out on a limb and say ferrari 599 
that car is pretty much unmanageable when you boost the hp to the max no matter what you do .
Other than that we really need to know the car and what you have done to the suspension, lsd etc.
Generically i would say you need softer springs up front to get more weight into the nose when turning, you need more camber in your front and back, you might need to crank the LSD up if the car is super wild, i mean that is the only way i could even begin to get the 599 drivable with all aids off, and that car will sooner kill you you then look at you period.

I think there's a slight confusion here. Tuning refers to the settings we change on the suspension/LSD/brakes/Downforce/Gear Ratios of a car.
From what i understood, you haven't yet tried changing those settings, what you did was buy upgrades for the vehicle, and now it's very difficult to control it
Time to start fiddling with those highly sensitive settings

Yeah by this I meant only upgrading the parts ... so the conclusion is I need to get proper tuning and hope it will be OK
