Lastly, check your tire pressure and make sure they're not on the lower side.

Did you switch gas stations and/or brands lately?
I don't know how to tell if they are directional is there anything i would see on the rim that would tell me? My tires say max pressure 50, and my car says 35, I keep them at 39. I think that's good enough? When they warm up the pressure increases right? Also no I didn't change gas stations. I always put 93 shell gas only.
