Another thing to check is the front end. With the wheels off the ground, car on stands or a lift, grab a wheel and try to move it back and forth. If there is play, there is a wheel bearing or a tie rod end issue. Wheel bearings might be able to be adjusted to eliminate the play. You might need to try a new car with no issue and then compare with yours to see if it feels right. A good repair shop can check this very quickly.
