Pulling to the left

[DAVEURO]

Euro R 2003 ..

Got 4 new Goodyear Eagles fitted recently and all of a sudden the car is pulling to the left when accelerating. No pull when braking. The alignment was corrected on all 4 wheels but problem is still there.No apparent wear is noticeable on the suspension bushes and joints.
Can anyone help.

If you have ruled out other factors such as unequal air pressures, suspension, bushes and joints then I would suggest that the alignment is not done correctly at the tyre shop. I have two occasions in hte past where wheel alignment has to be done a second time for the car to track stright becaue the first technician did not quite get it right first time.

Thanks ,

The car is straight, suspension seems to be in order.
Its just that on the old tyres which were badly worn and in poor condition the car drove perfect without pulling.
I noticed in some other reports something about assymetrical directional tyres causing problems.
The new tyres are Goodyear eagle F1 assymetrical 215/45/17.

the car general pulls to the left no matter what as it is to prevent oncoming collisions.

You prob feel it more now due to the new tyres as your old tyres were worn in.
Also are you testing it on a flat rd or cambered rd? As the euro stock alignment settings have been set to veer slight left in general to negate the camber in the rd.

Hope this helps, also the euro tends to have tramlining.

An old trick, swap your front tyres from side to side. If it then pulls in the opposite direction which is a good possibility, put the offending tyre on the back.

assuming your tyres are bidirectional.

if they r directional swap front to back, or get the tryes turned around on the rim so they can be run on the opposite side. it s not all that uncommon for tyres to be the culprit.

Thanks for the replies,

Its not the road camber because it will happen if i drive on the other side of the road.
Im getting the suspension checked again and will try tyre rotation.
I can now change lanes with my right foot .. Power on goes left , power off goes straight .Suspect lower arms are the problem.

expensive though like $20/wheel.
