my car has a pretty annoying problem with wanting to follow the road. sometimes it gets pretty bad as to almost put me in the lane next to me. i understand that the 9" wide tires in the front are what are causing it. also my car is lowered about 1 1/2". what im trying to find out is can i get some kind of alignment that will help with this problem. or anything else i can do to take care of this problem. thanks for the space ls1tech.

I don't think you need a bump steer kit with a 1 1/2" drop. But you will find a performance tire will do that more than say a truck tire

If you think it's bad in an F-body try a Z4 with the runflat tires. Those thing tramline all over the place. They twitch like a crackhead on unsmooth surfaces. My Formula with 245/50/16's up front don't follow the road...maybe you should try less wide tires?

yes you can change the alignment and it will help.

What specifically about the alignment will help this problem?

what would i change in the alignment. i dont really know much about this. also i think i have to go with 275 tires because of the 9" wheels. thanks for the replies.

bring in your camber so it's negitive and bring in you toe.. this will wear out the insides of your tires more and faster than the outside but it works.. i'll check my alignment out tomorrow and post my actuals so you can get some numbers.

phatt tires will always railroad track on ya..go to skinny front tires to cure the problem if you think it is a real problem

mine does the same thing, and my camber is the oppostie from what was suggested above. they seem to be wearing on the outside edges. so reversing it may be a good idea.

The wearing on the outside edge is not good for handling. The only time that setup is going to help you is when the suspension is under load and compresses. Its better for the tires to be at zero to negative camber than to be at positive camber.
