Hello forum,
I bought an 05 FX35 RWD in June 09, and it doesnt seem to hold on to the road to well. It's gotten progressively worse and gets to the point where i'm hesitant to go over 75 miles per hour on the highway.I have 20 inch wheels and my tires have decent tread left on them. Is there anything i can do to improve this situation? I also have steering wheel vibrations when i step on the brakes. All your inputs are appreciated.

Also, anyone know where i can get two wheel rim covers other than the dealer? Mine were stolen and my lug nuts are exposed. Thanks Guys.

what kind of tires? decent tread?
 
If you have the stock Goodyear tires, replace them post haste. They are SHIT and if worn will definitely contribute to relatively erratic behavior at high speed. Especially on rough roads.
If you are experiencing extreme body roll, you may need new shocks. The shock service interval is around 60K miles.
The vibration under braking is most likely warped rotors.

Use the title search feature on the terms in red above if you want a boat load of info on any of those topics.
