Tire issues

tires, especially rear tires if new, must be broken in first. if you use mis-match tires obviously it will have different bias especially in the wet.

drive around normally for 100miles and report back.

also SLOW DOWN!

I woke up today and instead of taking the car to Nissan I took it back to Martin Tire. They rebalanced tires and I took it for a spin but same issue, The manager at that location sent me to a "state of the art" location that can run the tire and do all types of test.

I got to the other Martin Tire and they did a lot of test to the two rear tires they found one that was out of round. They replaced it no problem I took a test drive after replacing it and it still there.

I have never had this problem before I did the same thing to my 350Z had to replace the rear tires because of a blow out. I did not have this swaying from left to right or right to left. I do not understand what is going on.

I will drive it for about 100 miles and see if that makes a difference, if not I will go ahead and probably buy the two front ones same brand as the back and see if that helps.

I will also slow down to our speed limit of 60MPH for the time being.

you have the same exact problem right after they installed the new tire? well duh brah, it wasnt broken in yet. you cant slap on new tires and expect to be fine....

also having two dif brand or model tire front and rear isnt an issue as long as they are both in acceptable conditions.
