Q for those with different size front and rear tires..
I recently got some 285 tires in the rear and stayed with the 275s in the front and now I have some wicked tracking when I drive down the road. I know the 285s are only 1/2 bigger. Does anyone else have this problem with different sized tires? Its so bad, it looks like Im drunk driving down the road and its annoying!

no, i don't have that problem all the time. occasionaly it seems to want to pull slightly left, or right - but it's really random and not all the time. and yes they were aligned twice. does that help ya out lol?

Tracking is usually something with the front tires. i have 275s up front and 315s up back and it didn't change from 275s all around. the only thing that might help is a good alignment. with louisiana roads with the centers worn, i track all over the place.
