Hi guys
I recently got problem with bump steer really bad and annoying, I have to hold the steering wheel really tight every time
I have my suspension a stiffer and lower spring with standard shock and 16 inch wheel on an ek
That is the only suspension changes on the car

What u guys think the problem is?
I have checked the allignment and they are all right
I guess myself it is the spring
Have u guys experienced this?
thanks

when you say youve 'checked the alignment', what do you mean. youve had it checked professionally, or youve looked at it yourself?

In-correct offset wheels will also cause bump steer. :thumbsup:

Also worn bushes can contribute , also chassis damage , also uneven-inflated tyres etc. The list is large even on a "stock" car.
