Okay, please bear with me I will try to explain this as easily as possible. I have Tein S-Tech springs (approx 1 inch drop) and now I got my new 17 inch wheels mounted, 245/40/17 in back and 215/45/17 up front. Big deal right. So I go to where I work at Sears and get an alignment and I ask the guy to put it back to factory specs thinking that would be the thing to do. So he does but I leave and now when I accelerate it pulls to the left some, and my steering wheel was off a little bit as well. So when I came to work today I dropped it off and the guy said he would do it again. So he did fix the steering wheel. But it still pulls to the left! I don't know what else I can do. I'm going to take it somewhere else now I guess but what do I tell this next place? Should I be asking them to put it back to stock or what? All I want is for it to drive straight lol! I need this figured out by this weekend as I'm going out of town and I'd like to have it worked out.

Thanks

 

check that the tires have the proper rotation.

check that the tires have the correct pressure.

check that the tires are all the same, and were purchased at the same time with the same tread.

that happened to me when i blew out a back tire and bought a used one. same exact tire, but it was in better condition than the other one, so the difference in tread caused those symptoms

 

i put the tires/wheels on the car and drove it 3 miles straight to work from my house right after i did. i had them put 32psi in each tire the first time they did the alignment. all were bought at the same time brand new. the only problems i've had are after i got my alignment. it drove straight when i drove it from my house to work.

 

hmm. try another alignment shop maybe.

do you have the alignment spec sheet from the alignment?

 

yeah here is the before and after from the first time...

 

and here is the one from today...

 

everything looks good, except for the camber on the right rear. doesnt make sense how they couldnt get it any closer, doesnt make sense how they left it uneven from left to right also.

i would try going to a alignment and chassis specialist to see what they think, i'm out of ideas

 

so you think that could be why it is pulling to the left then...hmm ill take it to a perf. shop tomorrow hopefully. thanks for the help

 

really, i'm not sure.. it just looks funny, especially since on the first one they said it was maxed out at -2

 

Andy, where are u taking it this time. I suggest Graydon Tire on 14 near Buncombe Road. They are good and will do whatever you need them to do. I had trouble on another car and they solved the problem.
