Hey whats up...i currently have the kwv3s sitting on 19 vs715s 235/35 19 in front and 277/30 19 in rear on michelin ps2's. I had my rims and tires put on 2 days ago and ive noticed my car has gotten way wobblier. Im not sure how to explain it but when i touch the sttering wheel a little bit on the highway the car gets pulled in that direction very easily. Seems like when i accelerate hard its hard to keep it in a straight line. It felt like i was getting pulled to the left when accelerating and pulled to the right when i brake. I checked all wheels and my rear driversie had about 3 lugs loos about a full turn with the toque wrench. Feels a bit better now, but still feel wobbly on highway, im almost scared to change lanes because i get pulled so quickly. It almost feels like my tires are bald.....anyone have any ideas.

It's pretty normal when you upsize your wheels. There's just less rubber to accomodate road irregularities...
