My car is supposedly completely aligned but it is going slowly to the right new tires, i change the suspension also, can someone help me with this??? can it be the 4 wheel drive?? or the suspension? NO IDEA have try 3 mechanics!!
THANKS

 

is the tire pressure equal on both sides?

 

are the roads you are driiving on crowned? if so - find a flat area and re-check...I have a little toe-out in my car and so it's more finicky on crowned roads than it was...

 

Corner balancing

 

I have a similar problem and am told that it is the kumo tires that I'm wearing.

I had no such problem with earlier tires (Goodyear gd3), but I also have new suspension now.

Can you swap wheels with someone nearby as a test?

 

Can you post the results of your alignment? You should have a print-out from the shop showing the before and after settings.

 

i swap the tires with rim also check the pressure etc.

 

We have repeated problems at our dealership with this, & for us it is typically with Michelin tires on some specific chassis cars. (Although the problem is not just with Michelin)
Try this: swap your front wheels right to left. If the problem goes away, or the car starts drifting the other way, it's a tire problem. If not, it is an alignment issue.

 

What did you change on the suspension?
Was there height adjustment involved?

 

Warn bushes? Bearings?

 

Very good experience on wheel balancing using Road Force Wheel Balancer
in stead of std wheel balancer.

 

The tires are directional. Swapping the tires around on the rims and them swapping left to right did not Change things, in my case.

I did not try running the wheels backwards.

 

dfinnegan:

For testing purposes on a pull or drift, we will simply test run directionals on the opposite side backwards. If you swap them on the rims & put them on the other side, it does not change a tire problem causing a pull ---- you will still pull the same direction. In the scenario where you swap the tires around on the rim, the tire causing you to go to the right is now doing the same thing, simply from the opposite side of the car. You still go right.

 

So, what are the thoughts on running directionals backwards?

Okay for a couple of mile test run?

Certainly not okay to leave them that way.
Thanks

 

Absolutely okay for a couple mile test run, but yeah, don't leave them that way.
