Steering situation.....

[Push13]

I've been fighting this since buying the car... It is my one complaint about it...

I have lowered the car with Steeda ultralight linears and stock PP shocks and struts. The steering feels tighter after the springs, i imagine due to the slight camber change, but it hasn't really had a positive effect on this drifting/wandering/bouncing effect.

I've ordered Koni shocks and struts hoping it will help with the bounce that may be part of the problem, and will do the front sway bar mod as well.

I'm on stock tires btw. Happens on generally smooth, rutless roads, more when it's bumpy.

Sorry I can't help, just wanted to get in to track the thread and let you know you're not alone. I am surprised more people haven't experience it.

My car is a stock GT-PP and the steering was buttoned down tight from day one. For electric assist, it's pretty good. Assume this has to be down to the tire/wheel mod. Also not sure if your car is a PP or not, but I suppose it's possible that non PP cars may not be as tight.

Tire/wheel mod sounds like the only mod the OP has done so it's the first suspect. Lowering doesn't always turn out as expected either (other than appearance). Agree the electric steering is pretty good - my car is stock and tracks very well.

Thanks guys for all of the possible issues and solutions. I think overall once I get into doing the suspension modes it will greatly improve my issue. Changing springs and adding braces here and there will definitely help in the long run.
