[V8] ?91 V8 handling issues

[Audi Sport]

I assume you've had snow tires before? All I know is that when I had them a long time ago on my first Audi ('86 5000CS Quattro) the handling was terrible. The car would slide around LOT easier when you take a turn and the under steering was much worse as well.
 
Not sure if that's the case here but that was my experience, haven't owned snow tires since.

So I checked the pressure 36psi all around. I aired them up to 40 and it seamed to help. This morning I was driving and noticed it again but more pronounced, I stopped to check tire pressure and all were at 40psi.> > Anybody have any ideas what to look for or what could be causing the problem.> > TIA> > Joe> > __________________________________________________> Do You Yahoo!?> Tired of spam?
