Awful handling. Something is definitely off.

If not, I'd suspect and RTAB issue before anything else.

It's interesting Obioban mentioned the hankook v12s. When I first got my car at 88k miles, it needed all the common bushings replaced. But what dialed the car in the most was switching from v12s to Michelin PSS. I mean like swaying side to side at 120mph on the highway to rock solid in the same situation. My rtabs are up for replacement again and it reminds of those days and the v12s.

it should be pointed out that, while the V12s were some really sloppy tires, Hankook fixed all of those issues with the updated V12 Evo2
it's still not the best tire you can buy, but its no longer a bad tire you shouldn't buy. they dont even sell the original version people love to hate anymore

It's common enough but that's why regular inspections are recommended. To catch and replace things before they get to that point.IG: @limited.slip
