Front tires
Just got new tires 245/45/17 on the rear 235/45/17 on front car looks great had alignment nothing broken, when driving 55-65 mph it feels like front wheels don’t stay on a straight line it’s like they follow the road. Kuhmo tires

Check tire pressures
If alignment is correct, then it's going to be down to the tires themselves. Some times new tires take a few days to settle in, once the mold release agent gets worn down and the actual tire makes contact with the road.

It is possible they are directional tires on the wrong way. It causes something likes what OP described. Though without pics, its hard to tell...

Could also be the size difference? It not a lot, but modern traction control is really sensitive.
