Hey guys and girls
i got my wheel alignment done the other day to try and stop my car pulling to the right (only done this since fitting coilovers) it doesnt seem to have done the trick, still pulls to the right, all thats changed is the steering wheel is now straight.... also if i accelarate quite hard it seems to want to drift to the left more. what could be causing this?:confused:

Front bushes could be worn allowing the suspension arm to wonder or could be the ball joints mate, with it just been slammed on coilovers first thing i would check is the front bushes!

Have you had full computer alignment done? this will check toe,camber, castor and kpi ask for the printout of before and after.

Mine pulled to the left ever since having coliovers fitted, I`ve had to tracked twice and laser alignend the week after i fitted them.

Really bugs me!

But tyre's shouldn't be in a condition that cause pulling, always replace at about 3mm tread left and with good quality.
