Car pulling to one side
Anyone noticing a pull right or left? Dealer checked alignment and switched tires from side to side, pull now goes to the left. In my IS350 it took a tire swap to remedy. Here's a TSIB FYI:

Mine pulls very slight to the right not bad but annoying called the dealer they can't get me in until next week and then I have to be gone and have some summer stuff not ready to give the car up for a couple days yet so I won't know the problem til I take it in July.

If moving the tire changed the pull then a tire is the source of the problem most likely the tire now on the left but not always

Come on man I have had alot of cars work for a Chevy Dealership and built my 550HP 300ZX from the ground up. Tire pressure was the first thing I check they have brand new tires 400 miles on them and did an alignment when I got the tires and another one for good measure to make sure. The Alignment machine at my dealership is brand new laser machine so it is none of the above.
Tires could be defective.

There are suspension bushings you can get to make slight changes to caster, but nothing else. The TSIB blames tires most of the time. If the problem started after a tire swap, odds are very high they are the root cause.

my car also has a pull to the right. it is only slightly noticable at lower speeds, but when going 50+ it is really evident. i took it to the dealer about a month ago and mentioned it, but the everything seemed to check out okay. however there is still a pull to the right. might have to bring up the above tsib along with both of these threads. btw my build is one of the late 08 models 44xx
