help.. normal lowere charachteristics or botched H&R/Bil install/parts
I put a set of 17x8 wheel with 225/45/ZR17inch Nitto 450 tires that were on my old car. I had them for about 4k miles on my old car, they came blanced. I took them off the old car, stored them inside this winter, and then put them on my new a4 1.8tq with non sport, but i also put in H&R race springs and bilstien shocks. I am amazed with the handeling but on the highway and higher speeds the car seems to have bad alignment symptoms. It had an AWD alignment done the day of the install. It might me me not used to the new suspension/wheels or there might be a problem. I know when the 235/45/17's went on the 2.7t a6, it seemed to have the same pull to the right at highway speeds. Is there somthing wrong with my car or is it me? Or just the road ?

if you let go of the wheel how long will the car stay in it's own lane?...
at highway speeds 4sec. is minimum. did you get a readout with your alignment? if you did see if the front camber is the same on both sides. although you can't change total camber, with stock suspention, you can center it. this could also be hi neg camber causing wandering due to reduced/oddly shaped contact patch.
