Hi,

Just swapped my 16's over to facelift 17's and noticed its pulling quite a bit to the left when lifting off the accelerator. I know the Geo needs doing for sure, as I've recently fitted coilovers - so I'm assuming it's that. But other than a sticking rear brake, is there anything else I can check?

Obviously I've checked the wheels are actually on straight

 

Check your pressures as well.

 

Michigan UK ... where is this place!!!

 

classic signs of rear puncture

 

According to Bing, in the middle of the Yorkshire dales between Brough and Barnard Castle, but I don't think I trust that.

 

I'd say Tyre pressures or tyres manufactured in different dates.

My 16's are like that, similar tread depth, but 2 years between manufacturing and it veers to the left on acceleration and to the right on deceleration.

 

Pressures were the first thing I checked, but I'll check the manufacturing dates and keep an eye on the pressures to make sure they're holding air.

 

Just been watching a couple of blokes arguing on the telly, maybe the left side is hankering for independence?

 

Far more likely to be a sticking caliper IMO. Check if you have a hot wheel after a bit of a drive.

But if it's happened exactly the same time as the coilover swap, I think you need to do your geo.

 

Driveshaft spacers? Fixed this problem for me!
