It may be good for a tenth or so.... but i would say to drop your tire pressure to about 20 psi and see if it helps... larger contact patch is a good thing... if it gets better , continue to drop it little by little...

Another problem with the 7 is the AC.... don't know if you actually want to use it... but if you do it uses the old stuff that is really expensive to get... what ever they call it... and 7's had a tendency have ac lines go bad.... it is a 10 year old car though... :shock:
