Nazgul- If it wasn't 'squirrely' prior to new tires. Doubt the bar will cure this..

Maybe ya need an alignment ?

Body roll, yes that will help..

Just sayin..

My old tires were BALD...LOL what I mean with these and what I think JAXFL means is when you hit the gas.... the front grip like mad... but that back end wants to come around and say high...lol they sway bar will tighten up the back end and keep the car planted better....

I was actually referring the the front end feeling squirly. Best way I can describe it is, it feels like I am driving into a head wind most of the time. Most noticeable at highway speed. I have had the alignment checked twice, keep my psi in check. I think it just the tires...

Nice tires, they look good. Do you have any photos of your SS from behind. The reason I ask, is I'm going to be getting the same size. I'm debating on 245 or 255. Wanted to see how mean the car looked.
