#5406, "Somethings wrong.... I think"


          

Okay I have stock suspension, sticky tires and i autocrossed hard this summer.. Now it seems like when I drive down the road my car seems to move from side to side with the grooves in the road. And Ive noticed some bit of "torque steer"... Is it my bushings that are going bad or what? Its not bad just kinda annoying... Has it always done this and Im just now noticing it or do I have a problem???

Actually, first thing I would do is get an alignment done. Sometimes if the car is misaligned then it will "hunt" for the grooves in the road (had it happen to a friend's car this fall) It might be all that happened since you did push the car hard while autocrossing.

Mine drives fine with the stock rims and shitty tires. But, with the 17" rims and low pro's, I get the same problem your talking about.
Maybe it's just the tires or rims. I thought maybe the offset of my rims was causing it cause I got them used and they had been bought originally for a Toyota Camry.
