How Come?

Every time I hit a pot hole or uneven road surface my wheels react pretty hard. What I mean is my steering wheel turns (left or right) pretty strong. I never have this problem with my 18" non-S wheels and tires. Is that always the case when you have less meat tires and bigger wheels? I have 19" OEM wheels and tires. Any info will be appreciated.

Yeah, that's usually the case with bigger wheels and less tire. What tires do you have, are they the stock bridgestones? I noticed it to get worse for me towards the end of the life of the stock tires.

Its just the nature of having low profile treads. If it seems really bad maybe get the alignment checked.


Is there a reason you have 2 accounts, I'm assuming that last post by ACleanG37 was you since it was the same thing. If you want to change the name of your profile just let a mod know and they can usually take care of it for you.
