I am encountering some handling issues and trying to figure out if its
normal? Its a 2002 Sub Forester S, has abt 27M miles - running
Geolanders - they appear to have worn fairly evenly. (I bought the car
at about 22M miles).
I had an alignment done last month and alignment was indeed out
some(mainly toed out too much). After that, it seemed to handle fine -
we had some winter storms couple of weeks ago and I swapped out the
wheels/tired for some Kuhmo izens mounted on wheels (from tirerack)
and it handled fine with those. But now since I have put the
Geolanders back on its back to handling squirrely. The car will track
straight on the highway for the most part but encountering any
unevenness in the road (patches, ruts worn form studded tires etc)
seems to want to pull the steering off to one side or the other. I
have a suspicion that its toed out again too much - but maybe I am
just being too sensitive, and this is normal? Can the process of
swapping tires/wheels can throw alignment out?
