Default Steering wheel tug

Hi all,

I have an issue with my 2001 Bugeye WRX wagon, 100k miles, 99% stock.
Oz Supperleggera 18" on Toyo P1's.

When driving over uneven surface, maybe a patched tarmac road, I can feel the wheel tug to one side slightly. its not tramlining as I get that badly on the lorry dented roads around here.
its more of a tug, maybe 5mm-1cm on the steering wheel, than the wallowing swerve I get when tramlining.

Iv had the tracking checked and its now within stock limits.

My only thought could be that a bush is going soft, maybe lower rear wishbone and hence the wishbone is trying to rotate a little when hitting a small bump.

Any other thoughts on this would be appreciated.
Vik'

I had a similar problem. It went when I replaced my tyres :-)
