On my X5, the 19" Michelins tram, but my 18" snows only slightly tram. On my 528, I had little tramming until I put some negative camber in the front for better handling, but the problem goes away when I mount up my 15" snows. My 911 trams like crazy but it's got stiff R-compound tires and -2.5 degrees camber up front and -3.0 in the back. And an old Vette I had never trammed with fresh tires, but as they wore down, usually unevenly, it would follow every pavement imperfection.

Agreed. And it is also highly road dependant. I hardly noticed it at all in 1200 miles of highway driving from CO to CA when I picked up my X. But this one stretch of 880 in the South Bay is pretty bad. It doesn't bother me that much, but I also would not mind pulling back some neg camber to reduce the tendancy slightly, even at the cost of giving up a slight bit of handling.
