Steering problem..

hey guys...i just got my new tires and got them mounted and balanced at sears...everything seemed fine until i hit the highway and tested out the handling...it's so sluggish!!! when i turn the steering wheel quickly to the right..it's very delayed. I had my tires mounted and balanced at the same sears before and had no problem. They handling was superb and very responsive. This time...not the same..any suggestions? I plan on going back to sears tomorrow but would like some insight before hand so i can properly address the problem to them. Thanks!



btw..when i went to sears before..i had the same setup as i do now...(sig). Nothings been changed....

Check the COLD tire pressure in the a.m.- it sounds like Sears put in 30-32 lbs.

Try 39F/36R (OEM recommendation for 18" A-Specs). It's probably at least that for your 19" wheels- go with RonJon's psi recommendations on your wheels if applicable.

Same tires as before? Same size as before? ... also worn tires will seem to be more responsive on dry roads as there is less tread wiggle room.
