So, let's review the tires. You had two new ones put on ..... right? And they are both on either the front or back ..... right ..?

Are all 4 tires the same size .. ?? Are they all the same type ..?? Are they all the same brand ..??

If not, what are they.

Let's hope we can help you figure out what's going on with your car.

Hey - both Toyota and the alignment shop checked the suspension and the steering rack, neither said they found anything. However, I really doubt Toyota did a thorough job because it sounds like they just had a technician drive it, he said it felt fine to him, and then told me to pick it up.

All tires are original to the car when I bought it used at 25k miles, it now has 27k miles, They are all Nokian Entyre 225/47/17. All I did was rotate the rear tires to the front and the front tires to the back. The tires are asymmetrical, all season. I don't know exactly when they were put on, but they seem to have plenty of tread left.

Thanks again for all the help and patience... really appreciate it.
