hi i got a 1.8 focus, and when driving on most roads it seems to find any groove in the road and drag the car towards the kerb or oncoming traffic! its lowerd and got rs focus wheels on, i know these affect the handeling of the car, but its seems queit bad. ive had the tracking done, tyres correctly inflated, new steering rack. i was wondering if the top mounts had anything to do with it? cheers any help would be grateful!

 

Wide wheels are terrible, put the standard wheels back on for a bit and see if it improves. Could be knackered bushes though or a worn track rod end?

 

fort of track rod end but when i jacking it up there was no movement, ment to say also replaced both arms aswell!

 

Wider wheels/tyres will aggravate the problem, it is also a trait of lots of tyres, some worse than others, I would check the tracking as well.

expect the drop links are buggered

 

cheers for the replies just got some poly bushed front anti roll bar bushes and poly drop links, i also put bit more air in my tyres and it seems to be better to drive,

 

How lowered is it?

 

Poly drop links? where you get them from?

 

its lowered 50mm on front, and got the poly bushes off ebay m8,

 

I have no idea if this would cause it, but maybe too much negative camber on the front as its been lowered 50mm? Would put the geometry out.
