Torque steer

Weird problem 17RDX only 43,000 miles. I bought the car brand new and never a problem.
I just had the Michelin primacy tires replaced.
The car is now torque steering under full acceleration. It is a left right pull in other words it pulls in both directions (all over the road) up to about 55mph. The tires are Goodyear eagle sports. Under normal acceleration no problem. Comments?

If the alignment and tires are OK, then you need to look at the rear bushings of the control arms. I don't think it's a critical issue and you shouldn't worry about it.

Thanks i suspect tires as it started when I changed them. It runs straight down the road when just cruising. The old tires wore perfectly just bad traction on a wet road...will check bushings....it is almost like the caster is off.
