      It may be the tires themselves causing the wandering issue. Hondas are very_x000D_
      particular on the tires they use for handling. I believe they like Michelins. The problems

        Yes the tyres are low inthe middle all around. _x000D_
        They all have the same wear too. More grip on the outsides. _x000D_

          sounds like the tires are overinflated have you had the car aligned anytime this could cause wandering

              check your door for the cold inflation pressure. I would start_x000D_
              there. you won’t be able to judge the old tires. If you need to_x000D_
              go 3psi over factory inflation pressures. what were you inflating_x000D_
              the tires to?

                I’m thinking one of 2 things to check.

                  I’d offer that you have severely worn suspension components.

                    thanks for the replys._x000D_
                    the cold pressures are for 2.2 bar all around but this is for a 195 65 15 rim and tyre._x000D_
                    _x000D_
                    i checked the calipers and it seems the rear right is binding a bit and the pads are low so i reckon this piston is out too far._x000D_

                              Especially if you used aftermarket parts go back and recheck your work.

                                Ok I eventually got to replace the rear pads and one calipers. _x000D_
                                The rear right calipers was seized so I got it back with some freeing oil and it’s alot better now. _x000D_
                                Still have the clunk tho. _x000D_
                                I agree with the aftermarket parts as some I had to change a

                                  Not sure how you got the caliper to work again but this is the method that I use and it works pretty good.
