If you drive "fast" it is advisable to slightly over-inflate tires...most Police, Sheriff and Highway Patrol automobile yards do it on their cruisers, as recommended by manufacturers....

+1, termed "tramlining". It's very common on heavily traveled roads, and more noticeable the wider the tires.

It's been a while since I have checked this thread, but thank you to everyone who welcomed me to the forum. There is a lot of great information here as well as a ton of good suggestions on upgrades and modifications.

Happy trails, everyone.

I don't know what's worse for an Outback or any car for that matter, TX grooves in the concrete or surface of the moon potholes in Jersey

Maybe our cars are trying to tell us something when they "sway" a little on the road

In any event, welcome.
