At 112k miles i would expect your shocks to be shot, mine were done by about 65k miles. The care drove at speed as if it was in a cross wind even though there was no wind. It would even move around during the drying cycle of a contactless car wash. I fitted PS9/ PS10 and the car became an entirely different beast.

Replaced all 4 tires. Initially drove fine, then started to notice sway at higher speeds. Checked the tire pressure and found that the front left was several PSI less than the other. Turns out I had a slow leak.

Just following up on my own post: I finally got around to taking the car in and my indy didn't like my front tires. They were quite old (7+ years) and weren't in as good a shape as I thought. They checked the tie-rods and said they were fine so we replaced the fronts and did a four wheel alignment.
Just driving around town it feels night-and-day better. I'm looking forward to getting it on the highway this weekend.
Cheers,

I Finally had a four wheel alignment done and all is perfect now.
The guy that did my alignment at NTB that had 20+ years of service experience said it was one of the worst he has seen in some time. It took him every bit of an hour, double checking everything and now it drives perfect. Best $89.99 I have spent in years....
