Ok I just reread your post and see that I ignored the rut steer. Most first order vehicle models approximate the forces generated at the tire contact patch in its lateral center. When the road surface is uneven that model is poor. spindle length and scrib radius definitions no longer mean anything, and you have to go to effective scrub radius and spindle. this is the "rut steer" phenomenon where the car steers because the equivalent longitudinal force at the tire is moving laterally around and causing all sorts of torque imbalances about the kingpin. the solution to this is a tire which is more compliant and can better maintain the longitidinal force at the tire contact patch in the center as the road surface changes.
