OK...the car hit 10,000 miles and the tramlining (Especially with the cold weather) is terrible...almost dangerous at times. Bridgestone tires and I've tried every pressure combo I can think of. What have other owners done about this?

Get different tires. Others can recommend some of their favorites but the stock tires (ContiSports I believe) are known for this.

Oh yeah, when we picked it up and I saw the ****stones I commented that these are going to be trouble (One has already blown out a sidewall, which they wouldn't stand behind). I have always run Michelins and never anything like this.

Directional tires seem to tram-line more than non-directional. That should help you pick a new set.

With the ZHP option I'm stuck with uni-directionals tires and of course know what I will buy next, that's down the road a bit. I was also wondering if people had been experiencing alignment problems.

I'm running 38 PSI all around with the Bridgestone Potenzas, and tramlining is almost nonexistent.
