Okay, so the issue isn't quite as egregious in these videos. Not sure if that's the wheel/tire change or different roads. Things I did discover:
1.) The vehicle wants to follow the bank of the road. Most roads are slightly banked to the right, so the car always wants to go right. I have 30 minutes if video of me driving constantly correcting the car after it was set straight, then slowly wanders right (or left if the road banks that way, but generally right). For fun, I tried the same thing in my Model 3 and it keeps driving straight. Suspension on the X is Standard, if you're curious. Tires 45 PSI cold.
2.) Bumps cause the wheel to move. I get it over large bumps and train tracks, but small road imperfections were a bit surprising. However I can't say I would have noticed this before or not. This is also not the problem I'm posting about, but including in case it's relevant.
3.) The SuperWide aspect of the video makes it a bit more difficult to see the subtle movement of the wheel. In future I may place markers on the wheel and/or use a less-wide aspect.
In thinking about it, it is curious that wheel movement over bumps. When I was changing to the summer wheels, I gave the wheel a good shake and it seemed solid. My last vehicle had play, this did not. The most frustrating thing is the car just won't stay straight without my constant intervention
And now for some video content:
Video 1
The first video shows the movement in the wheel not done by me or bumps (anything of me adjusting was to stay in the lane/on the road). I was slowing down at the end, so say what you will about regen being a factor there. This has happened quite often without regen being involved, and generally has no relation to speeding up/slowing down as I automatically excluded those events in my mind so I'm not confusing torque steer (for instance) with this issue. I included primarily because it was the best example in this run.
Video 2
This second video shows going over some minor road imperfections and the reaction the wheel has. Again this issue I'm experiencing is not localized to road imperfections, but could be a symptom of the problem.
Video 3
This third video shows the "bank turn" the car follows the road's initial bank to the left just after the train tracks and back to the right. it also shows the wobble of the wheel over the tracks but I can't say I'm surprised especially considering the angle of them.
If everybody else's Model X drives like this, then hey, that's just the way the car is. It's easy to overcome but feels unnatural. I hope I'm not hyper-focused on it now and that's why it bothers me. But I'm almost certain it never did this when it was new. Correct me if my memory is failing me.
