The car occasionally lurches to one side as if I am being buffeted by a strong wind. This happens at speeds of 70MPH +.
When? When I am on a rough surface ESPECIALLY on grooved pavement - turning or going straight.
Tires are fairly new with good tread and properly inflated.
Also, when I take banked turns on the highway at speeds between 70 and 90MPH, the car feels like it is sort rolling... tilting too much and getting pressed down as if by a strong wind (or the hand of God).
The wheels are slightly out of alignment and the car pulls a little to the right, but that should not be causing this.
Any ideas? I don't know what to investigate.

Just do -70 on smooth roads.....
I once took my car to the mechanic with the complaint, "It shimmies at 80+".
His response: "Why are you doing 80???"
