Hey guys, I wanted to get some opinions.. Does anyone know what could cause the tires to jump when I have the wheel turned fairly far in left or right direction? I've got 16" wheels and 245/50R16 tires (stock)... Is it an alignment issue?? I just got some turntables and am waiting on my caster/camber gauges to arrive.. I've got new tires ready, and want to get this figured out.. I did lower my car to be able to get the camber closer to spec. Aluminum heads/fiberglass hood made it sit too high and the camber adjustment was maxed out (and wearing the outer edges of my tires).. Lemme know what you think..

They all do that. Been doing since the day they were new in 82.

Worse when you back up.

You want to set the alignment to L caster +3 to 3.5°, R caster +3.5 to 4°, L camber -.5°, R camber -1°. Toe in around .050".

Though I haven't gotten my alignment set up yet, I did put the new tires on... Problem solved... Yeah, sofa, you were right, they all have a tendency to "want" to do that... Mine did it bad from the wear that was caused previously on the outer parts of the tires... Now, with nice new G-Force KDWS, no problems at all!! (and they grip a helluva lot better!!) Thanks for the reassurance though, sofa, you are an asset to this board..
