front end problems steering wheel jerking while driving

the car has gone through 4 sets of tires on the front since september 2009. had it aligned, changed tie rods, and lower arm bushing to frame. while drivng the steering wheel jerks real hard and the car will go into the other lane if you do not have a good grip on the steering wheel and bring it back to normal. everything looks and feels normal on the front end. anyone else experience this or coul dtell me what to check or what it might be?

if this is an 06+ civic, its a problem with the rear control arms (not the bushings, the actual arm itself).

honda has updated parts, or you can just go aftermarket camber kit.
