Driving is very "Squirmy" whats wrong?
Driving is very "Squirmy" whats wrong?
Ok I am posting this in the suspension board as well as the wheel and tire section because it could be one or the other. Im not sure. OK I have a 95z28 and over the weekend I put on new rims with new tires, 18 front 20 rear, and a new adj panhard rod. When I dorve the car to work today it felt like it was shifting around like I was driving on a wet road. Could this be because of the new panhard rod? New tires? Or something else? Also I did not have an alignment after getting the new tires. Do they need to break in first? The rear tires have 295/25/20s on them, the front has 285/35/18. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Well, if you just went from the stock 16's, I bet it's just the tires tracking all over the road! LOL I just went from 16's all around to C5 rims 18" rear 17" front and I was like WTF! But all the cars with the bigger, wider tires catch every groove in the road and it pull all over. Just my .02 BUT I would DEFINATELY check to make sure that everything is tightened up & on correctly.
