So I've been trying to get my alignment right for weeks. it pulls to the right and I have taken it to 2 different wheel works and it never gets better. they tell me its the tires because there is more where on the inside of the tires. I know my tires are crap and I'm itching to try the conti dws, but i want to ride these out as long as possible. Can tires really cause bad alignment? Thanks
Yes, tires can cause this. If your tires aren't directional, try swapping the fronts with each other. See if that cures it or causes it to pull the other direction. If there is a noticeable change, it's a good indicator of a radial pull.

I had the same problem long time ago,
been to many places pepboys x 5, sears auto care x 4 (all different stores)
no one can really fix the problem,
they all said it's my tires makes the car pull to the side.
End up went to WEST END ALIGNMENT in Gardena!
Problem fixed!! Car goes very straight, love the work done by Daren.
Thanks for the replies. I check my tire pressure and its good and I live in northern california so i can't go to West End Alignment unfortunantly. And my tires are directional. ugh, its just annoying, maybe I'll try new tires soon.
