Could be brake caliper also. When I used to have a 4 runner it would do the same thing, I would take it in and the right side brake pad was worn out and the left side was still good. The tech said it happens sometimes one caliper seems to garb harder then the other one!

I was startled at first when this happened to me. I realized that in Chicago with trucks, the roads are all uneven. Your low profile tire caught a rut and it is common for ruts to be more evident at intersections.

Mine does that too sometimes. I was concerend in the beginning, but now I'm used to it and just hold the steering wheel tight.
Other people experienced that too, so I guess it's normal.

same deal here... its the road for the most part unless you are turning the wheel slightly into breaking.... but its like you are in a slot car....
