Default About Azenis??????

I just put Azenis on my car about 2 weeks ago and now when i do over 80-90mph it feels like the rear of my car is swaying left to right...Why?? When i had Kuhmo tires on they didnt feel like that..

My set up is 15x6.5 rims and AGX 4 ways and GC springs with 200 front and 250 rear and a OEM strut bar and a rear strut bar...

Im just thinking its the tires trying to grip the road in the rear..
If anyone feels the same thing as me or can explain my problem please Tell me.

Thanks
Ross

i have these tires....when i 1st changed them , driving confidence went way up, all 4 tires will grip, but i recommend u get an alignment.....at high speeds i notice my bad alignment i never got one, but the car still can take the corners just fine

Its probably not the tires, more likely an alignment or tire balancing. I do know that on some CRXs when you lower the car the left rear tire shifts forward.

I hate to hijack your thread, but I notice now that right after I put Azenis on some 95 GSR wheels on my car, sometimes when I hit the brakes the car will pull to the left. Any explanation for this? Could it be any way related to the wheels and tires or is it time to check out my brakes?

It sounds a little like your tires are tracking in grooves in the roadway. That can be caused by the tire design, not necesarily bad tires, and often compounded by an alignement that is off.
