yea if you aint had them balanced, thats probably the problem. They will follow the road surface under braking (tramlining), thats not uncommon. When you are driving though, check both the wheel balancing and your tracking. As you have more rubber on the road, its more sensitive to little things! :)

my brothers C2 Vts had the same problem, its because your wheels arent balenced, is there a nocking or banging noise when you drive?
