Suspension Help

[dopeyx27]

When I turn real fast and turn back like switching lanes going at about 15 mph to a complete stop, my suspension feels like its kicking back at me. What do I need to fix to get that straight. Oh yea and when Im on the freeway, I could barely go around 65mph because my car follows the road if you know what I mean. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Sounds like you need an alignment. While you're at it, get a good mechanic to check out your suspension. It's difficult to diagnose the problem like that.

Well.. naturally.. if the road leans... its natural for a car to pull towards the low side... even if it is aligned.

.... it just be your tires.... wider front tires seem to follow the road much more.... my car pulls all over the place when I drive on shitty roads... sometimes my forearms get sore

lol thanks for all your replies. I just replaced my balljoints and im running 235s front and back, with 40 profile. I think that might be the problem then. While im at it, can anyone recommended Rear shock mounts for a good price? I plan to do them myself also (for stock suspension). Thanks

It's normal for a car with wide tires to tramline and follow uneven surfaces.

rear shock mounts go to bimmerworld.com. They have the lifetime ones for like $30

[dopeyx27]

are they reliable though?

[93 325i]

got them on mine with no problems. They are reinforced with steel so I doubt these will ever be an issue..

[dopeyx27]

so do you think I should get the E46 RSMs or just stick with the ones you recommended along with Z3 reinforcement plates?
