mine does the same thing, all the time if the pavement is engraved with tires. like if there are dings going along the road, my car steers to a side. i thought it's because of wide tires, mine are 255/275, but my friend said that it's because my car was wrecked and the alignment is off.

the bumpster kit is like 160 effen dollars, then you'll still need an alignment!

get the alignment, then go from there.

80 bucks is a good price for a lowered car

the guy told me he wont be able to put it into spec, or like the specs will be for a stock ride height or somethin i dunno, but basically he made it sound like he wont be able to get it back to factory settings but as close as possible. i dont have c/c plates so theres not much room for adjustment

sounds like cc plates should be next on your list.

since im not that low they can probably get me like .5 degrees away from the correct spec i'd guess, if not camber bolts can do the trick
