My car is tramlining excessively. I have 17's with p6000's. Is this normal w/ 17's?

Wider tires are more prone to it. Have your toe and tierod ends checked.

Is it only at very low speeds, or also at highway speeds?

It's most noticable at slower speeds but always there. I'm currently at 7600 miles on the odo

The car wanders toward the road imperfections.

Default dunno... it's weird because both of my dads S4s have tramlined really bad, yet my car with the same
width/size tires does not do it at all.
