I'm not sure how to explain it but it takes all confidence out of driving the car. whenever I go around a turn at a decent speed the front outside corner feels like it is diving (almost like the front wheel is buckling) and the back opposite corner feels like it is coming up. It almost feels like the wheels turn but the car wants to go straight (not understeer I do know the difference). Could low tire pressure cause a feeling like this? it makes me lose almost all control over the car and I have to slow way down to regain control it is incredibly scary. I noticed that one tire looks a little low but haven't checked the pressure in all of them. It never used to do this. I will check out the suspension tomorrow after i get home from work and will see if there is anything loose or obvious.
Not sure exactly. They came on the rims when I bought them. The outside and inside edges of both front tires is worn more than the center making me think that they are under inflated. I also hear a lot of tire screeching when taking turns slow, that wasn't there before.
Tires are loosing a lot of traction as they age and become harder, the noises you are hearing could indicate this too. You can find the year and week of production on the sidewall, as a four digit number.
Manufactured: December 2010 So I figured it out. It was only happening when turning right. apparently my left rear tire was super low. I think it has a leak so I'm now looking into getting new tires. But it doesn't do it anymore now that I put air in it...I feel kind of like an idiot now LOL
Yeah, it looks like when I turned right it put enough force on the flat tire to make it drive on the sidewall. The sidewall is all scratched up now and you can see where it was riding on it.
