The problem is that it follows every crack and crevice in the road. If the road is bad enough (Deep grooves, etc) it will even jerk the steering wheel out of my hand. Is this common or more a function of the size of aftermarket tires/rims? (Width?). Stock was 175/70R13 so the aftermarket tire is only 20mm wider..Also the tire hydroplanes like crazy (If it is raining only lightly I can only go about 55MPH before it starts to get unsafe) although I imagine that to be more of an issue related to tire brand. Basically is this normal for Hondas? Or just ones with non-stock wheels? Any input/ideas? Thanks!!

get new tires and stop hitting stuff in the road.

 

Maybe an alignment issue, might be worth checking out

 

Well, I have looked at tirerack.com and they have a decent all season performance tire, the Firestone Firehawk Indy-500

Good point about alignment. When I bought it two months ago, it was balding slightly on the inner part of the tread...I have since parked it and am driving my Z26 till I can get it to the tire shop and have it checked out...
