Highway Grooves Cause Sway
I have an 06 GS300 that slightly sways when driving on concrete highways that have been grooved. Any suggestions on what causes this or how to correct?

When I was running the S03's on stock wheels, I noticed the same thing. Maybe because they were a really square tire? But after I got the 19s with Toyo T1R have not noticed it since, although I have new suspension also.

They are PS2. I'm talked with the tire shop and they're going to trade for the A/S. Can't be worse, this car is moving side to side like a pin ball machine.

America's Tires installed the Michellin Sport A/S today and they are awesome! Thanks for the suggestion. The Southern California freeways that caused the swerving are the I-10 between the I-15 and 605 also the 210 Freeway from Rancho Cucumonga to Arcadia both directions. But the A/S tires stopped the swerving.
