Question for all the 370z Owners
when you drive your car and come to a stop sign or a red light on a bumpy or uneven road does your cars steering wheel pull to one side. Doesnt matter which side it is but mine usually pulls to the left about 5-6 inches.
i wanna know how many people have experienced this. |
Since we both reside in California I can say that a highway that have been modified whereby additional lanes have been added, and the concrete road bed has been strafed with rain grooves provides an interesting joyride as the 370Z will follow the old road course, but this is standard for such a tire/rim setup as ours. The distinctive pulling to one side at a stop is not.
Have you checked your tire pressures, and alignment? |

I've noticed this too...it's rather dramatic when it happens. However, I've only noticed it when stopping on a road with rather prominent tire groves. My alignment and tire pressures are spot-on, so it's definitely a road-tire interaction under certain circumstances.

If the road is grooved from heavy travel it is possible for the steering to follow the terrain. Some refer to this is trammeling. Bigger tires increase this along with improper air pressures. Coming to a stop the tire will try to follow the topography of whatever it is against/resting on.

Mine does this also, is normal on grooved and worn roads. Normal smooth surface, no pull. John |

Are you saying, having offset size tires cause that? |

64 dollar question- Does every one have the stock tires?

Tramlining is worse with wider tires so I would expect those with the sports package to get it worse. I widened my fronts to 275 so the tramlining got a little worse.
