I noticed, while pulling out of parking spaces with the wheels at full lock, that something is not right with my front suspension.

It's hard to explain the problem, but it feels like the front end (hops a little?) like the wheels want to roll over themselves. I'm probably not making any sense because it's hard for me to explain exactly what it's doing.

The issue is only apparent at full lock going forward or in reverse.

Any ideas?

I've felt mine do something similar before. How wide are your fronts? Mine are 275.

mine are 245's.

I turned the wheels to full lock and visually inspected everything. The only thing I can think is the problem is that the tire rubs on the sway bar but I'm not for sure. When I let go of the wheel, it backs off a lil. So, without an extra person to hold the wheel, at full lock, I can't tell.

It is just something that happens, my 98 grand prix does it , my 97 f150 does it, my 98 cobra does it, all with different size tires. More pronounced when road is wet, it is the tire binding up and unloading, have someone drive while you watch an you will see, trust me. Sometimes it seems like it is ripping the tire off the rim!!!!

Yeah, I was worried I had a bigger problem. Once I get my new suspension done, I'm hoping this will be a non issue.

what worries me is it popping the front end out of alinement, so far, not an issue!

I just saw a set of 1" wheel spacers and a set of 1.5" wheel spacers. Would they solve the rubbing issue?
