Any problems with P-Zero Nero?

I just got a set of P-Zero Nero's last week. Anyone experience sudden shifts to the right/left when driving on freeways with grooves in the lanes? I just took my car from San Jose to Fresno then to Paso Robles then back to San Jose. The tires were dope in the mountains, but as soon as I come upon a freeway with grooves it feels like the car is shifting from groove to groove making a very unsteady ride. Does this make sense to anyone? Btw, I drive a 2006 WRX Wagon, no mods.

Yes, I have.

These were my first set of tires when I got my Rota Tarmac II. I had my scary experience traveling on 880 just after passing Embarcadero going to Gino's (GB Motorsports) in Hayward, as well traveling on 680.

I have a a few sets of the Pzero Nero M+S. They will track for the first week or so. The have those parallel grooves that track on the grooved pavement. The good news is, you have bought one of the best all around tires you can put on your subie and the tracking will go away in about a week once the sharp edges wear down. Try to set your front pressure to 37 and the rear to 33. this helps a bit too.

Love em! So far, better treadwaer than the 2X+ more expensive Michelin Pilot Sport A/S, but I haven't had them in the snow. I have Blizzaks for that....
