Steering Wheel pulling
Good afternoon ladies & gens.
I have 04 RX-8 GT and I just put my summer tires in yesterday.. but when I drove
back to my house, my steering wheel seems moving itself left to rigt when I go
over some unbalanced road.... my alignment seens fine but I had to hold my
steering wheel tight.. Is it normal because of the road condition? I forgot what it
was like last summer...

Actually I have original Tire on.. Bridgestone.. When I'm driving around within 60Km/h. it
pulls side to side only when I'm driving in the city... normaly city street is not that good..
but if the street is nice and balanced, car is ok.. just little worried..
Thanks anyway..

I know you have the bridgestones on... the best thing that ever happened to me is that mine wore out so I could replace them. Here is a link to just some of the comments on these tires.

Everytime I swap my winters with my summers, the first thing I notice is the tugging and pulling of the stock tires/wheels over every little bump...
There is quite a big difference from 17" winters to 18" oems...just from the tire sizes...and the tire profiles...
Make sure you check your tire pressures since storing them for the winter they probably have dropped a bit
