Bad handling, need help.
I have a 2003 gt with 77,000km's. I just got a set of toyo garit winter tires installed and ever since when I am travelling at a higher speed 90-110kms or 35-55mph the car wanders.
When I accelerate it goes right and when I decelerate it goes left. And when I correct the "wander" the car feels loose and wobbles. any ideas?

And check your tire pressure as well...

Re: Bad handling, need help.
this may sound foolish but make sure the wheels are fitting tight the to the hub and the lugs are tight

Re: Bad handling, need help.
I would suspect that one or more of the new tires has a bad belt somewhere. My pt did a similar behaviour after I hit a pothole. New tire fixed it.
