      Exclamation emergency!! why is my aveo doing this!

      just realized both my front tires are toast and they were brand new a month ago. tires balnced and put on facing proper direction. running yokahoma s drives. when i do 80-100 the steering wheel shakes a bit, when i slow down sometimes it pulls, and when i accelerate or slow down and turn the wheel it feels kinda stiff/ shoppy to turn almost kind of sensitive. whats going on!!!!Name: CAM00127.jpg Views: 1894 Size: 274.4 KBName: CAM00128.jpg Views: 1751 Size: 285.3 KB

      is it pulling to the left or right, and is it pulling under braking? does the Steering Wheel center itself properly when it feels stiff? have you had any recent suspension work done?

      you must have too much camber.. the other thing is, i bet you accelerate into a turn.

      the toe can account for this, to much toe out + the camber will do that fairly quick.

      Unless you have driven far more than 20K miles in the past month I find it impossible to believe those were brand new tires just a month ago...

      With an alignment way out of wack that is believe able... probably hit a curb or something, the toe is way off on both and camber is excessive one the other (from the looks of it)

      I had one of those issues with my 1974 Firebird. It happened when I did a 90 mph left hand turn. yea it was a 90 degree turn.
      But sound like you have some other issues like ball joint or tie rod ends that are going bad..
