Is this normal behaviour, or should I just change the tires and have >the alignment checked, if so, what are the best tires to get? Hello there, I have a 2000 9-3SE Cabrio, and don't suffer from the same trouble. It's probably worth getting it checked first, but otherwise, it's new tyre time. Currently I still have the stock tyres on it, with 28k miles on the odo. They're Michelin Pilots, and have been fine. When I get around to changing them I'll go back to the Pirelli P6000's I had on my previous NG900 Turbo, which were even better for handling, and perfectly good in the wet. Hope this helps, H.
