FD1 left problem

[jcpabc]

I just put a set of Works CR KAI 17" on my FD1, and did wheel balance.
But it still keep moving to left a bit. Also, my friend has the same problem with his VTI-L as well. (Test on eastern freeway, VIC)
Do you guys have the same problem?
I search this problem online, they said because the engine is at the left. Is it ture?

also cos roads aren't dead flat... So rain runns off.

plus tyre pressure~~?

[jcpabc]

I put BS re001 215/45/17. 32k for all tyres.

yeh wad abt the tyre pressure??is it all the same?shuf be at arnd 40-45s...correct me if im wrong

yupe, same like mine.
also did wheel alignment, still little pull to left.
may be because the road, and also someone said, it's for safety reason.
if u fall asleep during driving, u car will go to left instead to right and heading to incoming car, but not sure for this reason.

My FD had the same issue as well, kept bringing it back for alignment and had the same result... but this didn't happen when it was new, only when I got new rims and re-did the alignment.

Just curious, did you experience this prior to installing the new wheels? Is your friend with the VTI-L running stock wheels/tyres too?

I've changed my wheels to 17" ones too. they seem fine tho, i'm using 38 psi atm (tho the place that did my wheels+tyres gave me 36 psi in the front, 35 in the rear).

Try 36-38 psi tyre pressure and see if you minimise the pulling to the left (caused by road slanting)

road is slanted to let rain clear off and so you dont drift off into oncoming traffic if you arent paying attention lol

Yes i got the same problem!!! ahahaha i thought i stuffed up my wheel alignment some how... phew i am not alone
