    Default Got a Dunlop, recently, was not square but...

    half of the tire were a bump over about 60 degrees of the tire circumference. When I got it out of the car, I made it run over the place and it was balancing from side to side when rolling. The car was not in a shimmy, no, it was more like a shake, earthquake, who knows, and was worse at about 50 mph. At very low speeds, you can feel in the steering wheel the front tires bouncing from one side to the other. Now that I replaced the tires, car is smooth all over the speed range, even with the fact that I got my drivers side trust arm bushing f.. up.
