hi its mr problems again 
so my front tire had gone bold and i got it changed. well got the 2 front tires changed as thread was low and now the steering feels much better and can tell there is more grip however...............
when i am doing about 40+ it feels like the car is slightly moving left or right itself. bit hard to explain but its like it sways depending on the road. even if there is wind it feels as the car moves as it does not go straight.
could this be a wishbone problem perhaps.
thanks

tracking seems fine/ if i let go of the steering wheel the car will go straight. it does also feel like the wheel gets pushed back when im at a stop and i am turning on to the road to go right it feels as the driver side wheels gets pushed.
also if i turn fast it feels as if the wheel wobbles

it could be top mount bearing if tracking was spot on.
i got that problem when mine exploded. it just pulled to one side randomly (especially after you steering a lot)
