Default Alignment sensitivity

A third question to my newbie encounters...how sensitive are these Pcars to the crown in the road? I'm running 255/40 on the rear, and I seem to be steadily fighting the keep the car straight (it always tends to pull toward the curb...slightly favoring the right side).

Is this common, or do I have alignment issues? If so, is it $$$ to get alignments done on these, any tips?

Thanks

Check the alignment and know that if you have a C4S than you'll require a 4 wheel alignment.

Chris, that's a good price. I'm looking for an indy shop near me that can do it, they need to have the Porsche Computer.

Chris, pinch me if I'm dreaming. $100? Is that with an OEM unit and 4 wheel? Looks like I'm taking a trip to the Island soon.

Edward,

Manhattan Motor Cars only want about $700 for an alignment. I think they'll also align your **** for that, but you have to tell them in advance so they can adjust the lift.
