I cannot figure this out. When I got my new rims and tires my car started to pull to the right. I thought this was weird because I had just got my alignment checked about a month back and really don't drive my IS that much. So I went back to the tire place and had them swap my front 2 tires around (btw, i am running 235/35/19 front and 275/30/19 rear). I figured if i had a bad tire it would then start to pull the other way and bingo problem solved. Cept that didn't happen. It still tramles to the right.

Could a bad rear tire cause this?

I guess my next 2 steps are to get the rears swapped around. If it still pulls to the right get the alignment check.

I have read some older threads about the stock dunlops causing some serious tramlining. I was just wondering if this is a tread pattern thing or what?

Please let me know if you guys with proxes pull to the right.

IMO I dont think the rears have anything to do with that.

I have not had a tramlining issue with my T1R's so far... They
have about 1200 miles and no systematic pull to the right that you
are describing (the setup I have is not staggered).

hmm i am about to receive my new set of toyos, so i hope this doesnt happen to me with my new setup. I will let you know what i find out after i get them on . . .

Troy its not the TR1s take it to the dealership because I've had this problem with my car since day one and I have stock wheels and tires.

Buy PS2s thats your problem.

Check your PSI in the tires, I once had the same problem, didn't swap the tires around, but pulled to the right but alignment was fine. Turned out the right tire had about 7-10psi less than the front left, which caused the pull.

MoLexus what was your problem then? I just had it aligned about 2mo. ago at the dealership. What did the dealership say was the issue. Because I know right away they are going to blame my new tires and rims. So, I have to get all the other stuff done first so they can't say "well it's this , well it's that". Also, it didn't pull with the stock tires.

Rickster31 - psi is perfect, but yeah I have had cars pull because of that in the past. Thanks.

mwaull - are you going with a staggered setup?

mwaull

yes it will be 20x8.5 and 20x10 with 235/30 F and 275/30 R

I used to have T1Rs and I don't recall having tramlining issues. Like Ricky mentioned, check your tire pressure. Or it could very well be your alignment again. Hope you find what's causing the issue.

PS2s carry too much road noise and the 1 year annoying.

Wow I can't believe someone brought this up. I'm running 20s staggered with Proxes T1Rs and my car pulls to the right after I got them installed. I just read up on it and now I think I know why my car pulls to the right. I've been back 'n forth with a local tire shop thinking it's alignment and PSI. What can we do about this?

Apex84

Possibly the alignment is off. Have any of you lowered your cars at the same time as getting your wheels and tires.

What's up Leroy? How the hell have ya been?

I am not lowered, just running everything in my sig.
