Thumbs up noobie question

hi, before i change wheels, my steering wheel has no problem
however, after i change the wheels and tires , i can feel my steering wheel is going to the right side, and when it stops, it goes to the right more, i check the tires pressure, it is good. so i dont know what happen

Thats a radial pull. But check the alignment and if it still does it, than u can flip the tires side to side.

Mine did the same thing when I got my new tires put on. My alignment was way off afterwards!
