Alignment issues after tire replacement
Hi guys,
Last summer I had my tires replaced from BF runflats to Hankook Ventus EVO V12s, and simply stated, it feels as though the alignment is off. Before anyone asks, I had the alignment done, twice! and at two different dealerships, and the tire pressure is good. (36-38psi) The car feels as though it always wants to pull either left or right, and it gets worse the faster you drive. I cannot for example, let-go of the steering wheel for more than a second before the car starts to veer off center. The road surface seems to have no bearing on this behavior and the road is flat. Anyone have this kind of issue? |

Well... sounds like something is changing your toe. Maybe go to a shop that has a machine that can jiggle the front end to check for worn out parts. There was another thread where an 1addict with M3 control arms had worn out the pressed in bushing. IF you do a lot of city drivng I'd start first looking at the RF axle.

Yep, sounds like a toe issue to me also. Do you have suspension mods?
