Philo:

I had the same feeling when my tires were worn. How are your's? I'm not tire expert, but perhaps dropping the pressure in front will help?

Just checking to see how bad the bump steer is with some of you. My car is stock I believe, except for the Biltien HDs in the front.

Toe is set to +/- .06-.08 degrees.
Tire pressure is 36lbs front 38 rear.

Also, am I being overly consious of the "feel" and the way the M5 drives or does eveyone's car find every dam crack in the road ? Bumpy roads at anything over 80mph is a wild ride. I'm also steering from the rear but that's another story.

Philo.
