yea, think about it, snow is like the weights that balance your rims. If you have snow in your rims, you have alot of extra weight around and it may all not be placed perfectly = vibration

ditto. happens in the spring here in VT with old sand / mud / etc. Drop $2.50 in the self-spray carwash and hit it with the high pressure.

Yep, that's one drawback to doing donuts. It cakes the snow in your wheels and then when you drive away, it feels like your car needs an alignment.

wait... this question is being asked in New England?
You've really NEVER experienced this phenomenon before? I will admit when I first got my drivers license I freaked out when my car did that the first time though. |

I had this happen today, too. I was worried about it, but it turned out to just be snow in the wheels.
