Hey guys, I just recently switched from a set of Eibach Sportlines to a set of Tein S-Techs and I have KYB AGX shocks and I have PBR Semi-Metallic brake pads in front. I also just put on a set of 17x7" Konig Reasons on 235/40R17 Barum FR Bravuri tires. Now, before the install of the rims and after the install of the new springs I had a bad case of shuddering while driving on the freeway, so I figured I need an alignment. Ended up putting on my new wheels on before I did the alignment and Voila! the shudder on the freeway disappeared and so I didn't get the alignment done. But now with all of this installed, I was driving on the freeway doing about 65-70 and I had to brake really hard because of someone in front of me and when I did I began to sway really hard back and forth almost as if I was losing control! My wheels did NOT lock up but I had to countersteer pretty hard to stay straight. If someone had been next to me, I might had side-swiped them. What might be the problem?

That beats the ones my daughter made in the "Easy Bake" oven today.
She said they were cookies anyhow...
