Hey, how ya'll doin?

I have recently fitted a new set of alloys to my motor which are 17" with 225/45/17 boots on. Only problem is that with theese new wheels on the car seems to wander to the left of right from time to time. Had tracking set which was out and also replced n/s and o/s front lower rearmost link arms. STILL WANDERING ABOUT!!!!! Any ideas???

It called tramlining, common issue when you fit wider bigger alloys. the chamber needs to be check also, as your new wheels will be slightly larger circumference than 16in wheels and exagertrate the effect.

My golf MK1 does it a little, you do get used to it.;)
