Bump steer is what we are getting, BTW. Shouldn't be that way stock, though.

Every car/truck ive been in with after market rubber band wheels the ride and steering go to sh*t. ride quaility, yes.(even though a good ride is purely subjective) but steering will almost always improve with a lower profile tire. The OPs issue isn't with the steering per se, but with the steering...

Hey Billy T. Are you a mechanic? You mention steering dampers and trying to rig the Path for them...is this a long shot or a real possibility? Just curious. Thanks for the help. I own a VW/Audi performance and maintenance shop. Have built everything from 800hp VW GTIs to Jeep Cherokees on 34" ...

Gets going as well as the 6.0 PSD my friend has and pulls better than every other rig I have ever owned, fr...

There are adapters available state side that go for 57 each to get the 6x139.7 bolt pattern. Use google, search for wheel adapters. Only issue I see with this is that most of the 6x5.5 wheels already have a low offset, the adapter will add another inch to that offset, which would get you a wheel tha...
