Just a change from the stock tires to some good tires like Metz ME880 will cure that problem. They do not have to be wider to get this benefit, that's not a slight of wider tires.
My ME880 90/90/21 does not track road grooves at all.

I wasn't saying it was because it was wider, I just know by going with the new tires it was a night and day difference, and I can only say I upsized, widened, and change brands at the same time.

I understood that, and didn't mean to slight the wider tire, just offering info for the other guys as well.
