Try Traction Control in Rowville. They are a Yoko dealer but are reknown for wheel alignment including 4wd and do heaps of race cars etc.
Are you sure it is not tyre related (weights).

Default Thanks - I'll give them a call...

I don't know what it is although it is most likely balance.

Default 1. Rebalance wheels, 2. >>

2. Rebalance at a different tyre shop.
3. Reseat the tyre on the rim.
4. Make sure the rims are round.
5. Make sure the tyres are round (very rare, but it happens).
6. Make sure you rotors an't warped. Assume no shudder under brakes here.
7. Buy a new car. Thats what I did last time, bloddy Magna.

Also, You'll find certain tyres are bad when they are cold. Then can develop a flat spot on the tyre when they sit there for a few hours. Only when they warm up, do they become round again. Affects some tyres more than others.
