Funny Feelin, Tires?
I have an 07 TL Type-S, it feels like I have a bad tire? Even on smooth roads, it doesn't feel real smooth. Not real bad, just something seams wrong. I felt the tires and can't seam to feel anything wrong. The tire pressure is fine. When I first drive it after sitting, it feels worse. Once I drive a while it gets better, but still doesn't seam as smooth as it did a month ago. I have about 3500 miles on the car. Last month I went to southern Chicago about 4 times in a 2 week period. I was driving quite aggressive but not crazzy. Maybe 100mph a couple times. But I was doing 80-85 average. With aggressive lane changes, but nothing out of the norm.

You may have thrown a tire weight, there are a lot of pot holes in the roads this time of year! You may need to get the tires balanced and see if that helps...

That makes a lot of sence! Great idea. Thanks, I will check it out, I should be able to see dirt surrounding the area if 1 came off

I checked for missing wheel weights, but didn't see any gone? I understand the flat spots, but it wasn't doing it at all, then it appeared. Or now I feel the car isn't as smooth, even on new pavement?
