GTO5005 Posted November 29, 2015 Share Posted November 29, 2015 Well it rained real bad the other day and my stock tire was a 215/45/17 never had a steering problem with these. While just starting up the car in the heavy rain at a stand still with the 215/50/17 performance tires the steering wheel from left to right would make noise and move very hard like the steering pump is going out. Found a post on the seal on pump needs replaced. Yesterday while it was dry at a stand still no problems with noise or the steering wheel turning hard a stand still. I though those tires would not be a problem considering my winter tires are that size. Input would be appreaciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GTO5005 Posted December 12, 2015 Author Share Posted December 12, 2015 Belts just needed adjusted. I did change them about 1,200 miles ago. No more noise works good as new again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
