Default car pulls to the right at gear change

My S will wiggle and will pull to the right when I change gears while accelerating more energetically. It will track strait otherwise. If I do not give her more gas at shifting, it is not noted. My tires are rather new, all are the same, I had an aligment last year. Car has 27k, never tracked or hit...What may be the problem? Thx.

Does it only do it on upshifts or downshifting (...decelerating too?)

Tire pressures? Our cars seem especially sensitive to it.

Bingo... That was the culprit.Just by looking at the tire it did not look underinflated, but later in the day the pressure was low. Fixed the problem- it was a nail- and now she goes good. thx everybody
