so i just got some new wheels on my car and i noticed the car likes to pull to the left now. so i swapped the two front wheels and now the car pulls to the right. its wierd… any advice or help? thanks
silly question, but are the tire pressures equal on both sides?
did you have a look at the wear on the tires? any uneven wear?
what kind of tires? cheap tires, due to their construction, can sometimes pull. could be the tire is separating as well.
if they’re directional, make sure they are mounted in the right direction.
you may want to rotate front to back. while it won’t solve the problem, it may help mask it

:iagree:
Also, you might want to double check to see if the tires are ALL the same sizes.
Another thing is to have the tires electronically balanced… unbalanced tires can cause your car to do weird shit…
unbalanced will usually cause tramp or shimmy, depending on static or dynamic imbalance. not really pulling
thanks for the help, my tires seem to be balanced right but i noticed in one of the front tires i have a small bubble in the side wall. this sucks because thease tires have so much tread

this would definatly cause your problem. make sure the sidewall sizes are all the same. :hi5:
If your tires are directional you might have whats called tire pull.
