The problem: I have a 21 3.0 with stock wheels. At 19K miles, I noticed the rear tires wearing out on the inner part of the tires. I decided to replace them (JUST THE REAR TIRES). I plan on replacing all wheels with TE37s with new meats and wider wheels in the near future. So I just replaced the rear tires for the time being with Firestone INDY. Had them mounted and balanced.
So upon driving the car, I took it on the freeway and the fucking car started swaying on me. I remember reading that a bunch of people had the same problem with other tires. Figured they were exaggerating. But the damn car is terrifying it drive while itās swaying. The traction control would kick on at 80 MPH on turns you would NEVER think it would ON FREEWAYS.
I figured that the car would eventually straighten out and stop after a few hundred miles. But I want to know why. I googled it and read a bunch of threads and etc. Several people have mentioned that itās lube of some sort that needs to wear off and etc. (which I doubt)
Any idea what it might be? And how did you guys solve this issue? Iāve had several RWD cars and replaced ONLY the rear tires on many of them and never had this issue. Whatās the reasoning of this?
