Dave, I know EXACTLY what you are talking about. My gs 400 does the same damn thing. it feels you are steering 24/7. The car is not relaxing at ALL to drive! What a headache.... Check it out:
Do you know I have had a LS400 for 3 years, then traded it in on my GS400 which i have had for 3 years....i have had over 22 alignments done on the two cars over the 6 years. 4 by lexus, and the rest under the life time alignment by firestone. about 700-900 spent in wheel isuues. I have JUST bought a new set of rims for the GS, with brand new tires. Still doing it. The old rims were fine! I just bought them in exasperation, thinking with lexus doing alignment, that I could expect the rims were the problem. Then lexus, goes on with their coporate bull****. "we cant be responsible for aftermarket....blah blah...." "return the car to factory specifications for us to address it"...
Its not the F'in wheel, jerkoffs!
I may sue over this. get all my alignment money back.... 2 damn cars. 6 years! The funny thing is, that lexus says its the rims & tires. Bull poop. My lS, i never changed the wheeels. Same problems! In 55K miles on the LS, i changed tires 4 times, and had one blowout.
These f-in cars wander all over the damn road, on the fwy at 60+ mph. I feel like i am steering 24/7....i HATE driving either car because of that problem. 6 years of driftin'...............
Such a shame for such nice cars. I really hate driving the things. My GS has H&R lowering springs with 18" wheels on it, i thinbk 9.5" wide. This thing keeps burning up the inside of the tires after like 12000 miles. to the steel! It handles like a 72 cadillac that has two flat tires. Totally ****ty handling. Almost feels like you are about to lose control if you swerve left to right at 60mph+ gently.
anyone help me????????????????????????????????????????? I am in the US. In california. Email me direct at rescom@megapathdsl.net
i wrote lexus on it directly. They are molasses getting anything done. then they are saying i have to convert it back to the orig rims & tires. (didnt say anything about the lowering though.....)
