Anyone with this problem?
Would a tower brace help? Tires maybe?




It's the grooves. Worst idea any road engineer ever had.

But yes, "hi-perf" lo-pro tires are much more prone to tramlining in this situation than the tall marshmallows. Lo-pros are for quick steering response and lateral grip. Tall tires are for straight-line stability.

And of course, the stock answer: Checked your alignment?
