I just got an '04 Accord Coupe as well and I haven't noticed any steering issues with mine. Mine also came equipped with the bridgestones. I only have around 800 miles on mine so far, so maybe it hasn't come into play yet. I'll let you know if it does. Do you have the EX V6 like I do? I wonder if it matters if you have the V6 or the V4? Just a thought.
