I have my alignments done by a race shop that specializes in Porsches. I figure that it they can get a race car to track straight and not vibrate at 200mph, a Volvo station wagon on the Parkway ought to be a piece of cake.

I've found the Volvo to have an unusually stable suspension design. It's always tracked pretty straight and true. Even when suspension parts are worn it doesn't seem to have much noticible effect and I used to drive the car pretty fast, most of those miles on the car are highway miles.

I have uni-directional snow tires on the car now. I have uni-directional 3 season tires too, and I've never noticed the car pulls, even when they were put on backwards by my Volvo dealer!
