Default steering issues

So i drive along these crappy roads and my wheels keep kinda steering right and left.
It only happens on certain roads that aren't level but it's annoying.
Any suggestions?

It is the tires. I have that same problem with certain roads. I asked around and some tires will do it more than others. It happens with high grip tires designed for
racing that are driven on the streets.

It happens to me w/ the 275's I have out back in high-traffic areas b/c of the ruts.... I got an alignment and it REALLY helped me out... Just making a suggestion.

My car somtimes seems like it pulls one way and other times it pulls the other direction and the alignment is dead on. Some roads slope a certian way and that could be the cause of the pull. It did the same thing with my 96gt. Just get an alignment check to be sure.
