Re: Tire pressure for R/T's ..

My D handles like crap! Excuse the language. Just got back from a trip to Cleveland. The whole drive on the turnpike the truck shimmied, and the steering wheel was having siezures (sp?). I read in the manual to keep tire pressures for the R/T at 30 psi. I have tried 35 psi, but it was quite a jarring ride. I am ready to take my D right back to the dealership, for the fourth time. Had it in there 3 times for pulling to the right (still does it a little bit).
What I was wondering is all the shaking and vibrating due to low tire pressure. It doesn't make sense if it states 30 psi in the manual. I thought 35 psi was a horrible ride. I hit a pothole on a curve and the whole arse end come out from under me! Oh what to do!
