Yer he drove it and said it's better but he reckons it's to do with the steering being touchy ( this was at tyre power) so that's why I'm asking on here

Years ago my ED - which was lowered etc. developed a tendedncy to feel like there were "wagon wheel ruts" on the road that were constantly grabbing the car and twitching it about - ie. wandering about - worse at speed etc.

I took it to wheel alignment place and waited while they did it. Started to realise there was something odd going on when they had been out driving and back up on the machine about 5 or 6 times and time was dragging on.

Finally the guy came in and said they were certain they had all the alignment adjustments spot on but it was still f&^%ed to drive - they had swapped wheels all over in all combos etc. - and best they could figure was that altho the tyres LOOKED fine - ie. they were fairly new Michelin MXF's or MXV's - cant remember exactly - there HAD to be something up with them.

Sure enough I had new tyres fitted and it was all good...
