did you ever notice they follow grooves in the road like it's no one's business? Maybe it's just the shitty roads here in Montgomery but I've noticed if there is a grove in the road the car follows right on along with it. Didn't do it until I put these tires on it. Not complaining though, just wondering.

Sounds like an alignment issue; that's what my car used to do when the toe-in was off.

I see what you are saying but nothing has changed other than the tires. I have't put the CC plates on and haven't fooled with anything yet. It didn't start to do it until I put these tires on so I was wondering if it was due to the tread design?

I'm not denying I need an alignment though.

Depending on how bad your old tires were, it's likely that the increased tread/traction just amplified an already existing problem.

My toe-in is horrible right now, but it doesn't follow grooves really bad. I know the car used to.......and I had F1s. :think:

My f1's I had were horrible tires. They were the old tread design though

My F1's were great !!!

But size was a little larger than would fit a Mustang :jester:

my car had tracked a little with them , but I mostly attributed it to the stiff suspension

My F1s did that, too. The Kumhos do it a little, but the F1s were worse.
