that was a premature evaluation. i made that claim while i had my 20s in the back of the car, weighing it down. now that they are out, the car does ride a lot smoother and much much less harsh than the F1s. its more bouncy and i already miss the F1s, but these really do seem they will be good in the snow, and dry traction seems excellent so far.

Joey,
Could this TSB be related to what you are describing?

Yep. When I bought my car it had the right lead from day 1.
I got it fixed under warranty with the TSB issued in March 2004 when I had the Conti's.
But when I got the Toyo's the right lead returned.
I have since had the car aligned (on my own dime) several times - new wheels, sways installed, coilovers installed, regular alignment, replace bushings on front sways. None of these alignments fixed the right lead.
But I havn't had the cradle adjustment yet.
So my right lead is either from the tires or the cradle.
Since the cost of the cradle adjustment is rather expensive, and not a sure fix, I am waiting to replace the tires. If the new non-directional tires don't fix it, then I will have the cradle adjusted.

I ordered a set last week from Tire Rack as well.
They should arrive by Dec 1.
We have a bit of snow and ice right now and I am not having too dificult of a time driving.
however, once we get dumped on with the snow, the snow tires will surely be a necessity.
They look good on the SRT!
Thanks for the photo's.
