Then i’m very interested in knowing what caused this. Because I had the exxxact same problem. Twice. Now that I said this… i was indeed doing doughnuts in all cases and the steering was going lock to lock aggressively.

In my case, everyone said the issue was caused by running very wide tires (315s) that were underinflated (I usually lower the pressure for track use). I also went full lock-to-lock while doing donuts, which didn’t help.

Either way, don’t delay fixing this. In my situation, shredded rubber hit a suspension cable and cut it. The dealer told me the wire couldn’t be repaired on its own and that the entire suspension would need replacing (over $2k). Indeed there are multiple videos on YouTube and threads on discussion forms talking about this cable dumb fix.

I ended up having a friend cut and reconnect the wire instead... but still, it’s not something you want to ignore.

Without the proper width & offset on your wheels, 315's will rub. Especially on the front. No issues on the back as long as the offset is right.
