A35 AMG - Vibration when turning steering wheel (winter tires)

Hi all,

I'm new here. I have owned my a35 for roughly 3 months now. Car is lowered on springs, no problems at all on summer tires.

Here comes the problem. I've installed winter tires and got my car aligned since last week. From that moment it started behaving strange on right turns. Whenever I turn right and let the steering wheel go, so that it goes back to normal position the car slightly vibrates/stutters (only in 1st and 2nd gear).

Anybody else experiencing same issues?

It is the Ackerman Effect. Look it up.

I've read about it. It happens on hard summer tires when cold outside especially right? You will hear a clunk noise when turning.

My issue is on winter tires specifically. It also doesn't happen when steering in, it happens when steering wheel is turning back to neutral position only. For instance when I let my steering wheel go.
