Yesterday, I took the car for a high speed run. The 1st one I've done in a while. Anyway, over about 150km/h (93 m/h) the steering seemed to go all floaty and the car started drifting about in the lane. The road surface was a bit rough (but not atypical for NZ), so this contributed to it.
Anyway, could my shocks be worn out? The car is a on stock 225/50/16 wheels and isn't lowered. My tyres were at 2.3 bar (33psi) front and 2.1 bar (30psi) rear - the pressure specified on the door jamb. Also my tyres are a budget Indonesian brand called Accelera, but they seem pretty grippy when cornering and such, so am not sure if they are the problem.
