Car is "wavy" and "bouncy" on the highway.
I installed new Koni's a few months ago and all was well. However, I'm noticing when I've driving on the highway that car tends to be wavey. When I hit rough patches on the road, the car will dive in a certain direction and I have to fight to keep it in a straight line.
Any ideas what it could possibly be?
My only mods are Koni yellows, everything else is stock and my car just turned $80,000 on the meter.

Drew, if you wind up needing springs give me a call. I have a 1" lowering spring for your car for $229.95 for all four plus shipping. We have the springs in stock and can ship same day. Front springs are #550 the rears #170.

Could also be bad ball joints and/or bad tie rod ends. Or maybe the hubs have crapped out. What kind of trouble shooting/investigation have you done so far on the car? Have you checked for play in the hubs, ball joints, tire rod ends yet?

The only other things I could suggest are...
alignment and/or maybe worn lower front control arm bushings (especially the caster bushing).
Unless they're not installed properly and/or they're defective, the springs ARE NOT causing the problem.
