That's awesome. Isn't that pulling effect sometimes called trammeling? tramlining? (sp?).
I really felt the difference just going back to 205/55-15 all season tires as opposed to the 195/65-15 snow/ice tires. I can only imagine the improvement it would be to now go to lower profile stickier performance tires and even further eliminating all that sidewall flexing. I am now officially in the e-bay market for at least 16 inch wheels and tires and up to 17".
Maybe that will also help reduce my current inclination toward the new GTI.
