98 900SE turbo 60k (steering rack brace)...I had accidentally been driving my Saab with the passenger front tire down to 20psi...stupid...but I have the 9-5 BBS on it with the 205-45-17s and its really hard to tell.
I have no idea why it was just that tire, maybe an intermittant valve stem leak.
Now I have a slow drift to the right...not noticable under about 30mph, but over 30mph I say it would go off the road in 100 yards unless I pull it back on the road (coasting). The steering wheel wants to center fine, but its not steering the car to the center. I now have to drive with the steering wheel about an inch pulled to the left to drive normally.
I do not see any unusual tire wear or cupping. I have NEVER rotated the tires, if it ain't broke ya know...so now I am hoping that its just that tire and a rotation might be all I need.
Anyone have any ideas, I am not too interested in dumping money into it now, but don't want to replace $800 of tires either!
