Default Bumpsteer/Traction

Hi all. Been having bumpsteer or traction problems since I installed some 17" Bullit rims with 245/45s all aorund. Aligned 3 times in 5 months. Air pressure ia at 24-26 psi. Taking off traction control feels better, but don't think I should have to do this at all. Has not been lowered, original rims were 16" with 225/55s, not much difference. Any thoughts?

depends on what kind of tires you have. P.s. you dont want to race with traction control on.

No racing, just cruising, a major problem in Puerto Rico are the bumpy roads, kind of getting used to them by now. These Ventus K104s make them feel worse than they are. They are 245/45ZR17s, look nice, good grip, but feel every bump.
