I've used all sorts of brands too, so I can't say that ABC brand is the best because I never had one them that was wiggly.

Anyone else having this issue a lot?

What kinda pressure & TPI? Mine have ranged from 58-80 and all of them were 60 tpi. The wiggle was only visual, i couldn't really feel it in my hands. The one i have on the front of the uptown is not 100% straight but it rides & handles like it is. Tire was on there 2 years sitting in a shop before i bought it.
