Decent tires would help, looks like a Dunlop on the front, I wouldn't use them and expect good handling.

Yes, Dunlops front and read. I may look at something different down the road. I had just put these on.

If you are running Dunlop 400 series tires and you get that wobble when you are crossing paint or tar snakes then I completely understand.
IMO Dunlop 400 series tires are terrible.
Now the Dunlop Elite series are a whole n'other thing.
Personally I swear by the Elite series as they have never given me any trouble.
