I've been having trouble with my car pulling to the right as Ive been driving. Originally I had a bad tire that would always get very low and cause the car to pull, this I believe led to the trouble, and meanwhile I looked into the tire getting fixed till I could get new tires. Well, no leak was found and until I could afford new tires I kept putting air in this one. I recently got the Falcon Tires and the problem was a little better, but not fully.

So today I go to Sears and get the wheels aligned (which was needed) I have the print out sheet and what they did to adjust the angles, but as I was driving home I notice my car still going right as I let go of the steering wheel. So Im not sure what the problem is. This is just agrevating.

I can scan the sheet or perhaps type the numbers out later on, but one problem with the printout sheet was the SAI. On the front right tire it is 13.6 degrees. The range next to it says 11.8-13.3 degrees. I feel like this could be the problem and I asked why those numbers were still red and they said they do not fix SAI. So my question is is this the problem? All of the other numbers on my sheet are green, in the recomended range. Before the alignment there were about 8 red numbers.

The only red numbers now, that are not in the range are Front right SAI, Front Cross SAI, and rear cross camber. Rear cross camber is -.7degrees while recomended is -.5 to .5 degrees. Front cross SAI is out of range at -1.6 degrees

Thanks a lot I appreciate it!

They should have pulled it back into spec unless the car was wrecked at one time. Honestly i'd take it back to the dealer or a collision shop for a proper alignment. I've had no luck in the past with Sears alignments, brake jobs, etc.

my wife's lowered car suffers from Radial Pull, which has some of the same symptoms youre having. rather than typing a long explanation, i did a google search:

"Radial pull" is another condition that is tire-related. Sometimes a variation in a tire's construction creates conicity in the tire that causes it to pull to one side. The pull will remain to the same side whether the vehicle is being driven forwards or backwards. If you suspect a tire is pulling, switch the front tires side-to-side and see if the direction of the pull changes. If it does, the tire is to blame.

The cure here is to replace the bad tire, or if the customer's budget can't afford a new one, move the bad tire to the spare position or rear axle where hopefully it will have less of an effect on the steering.

Radial pull can also be caused by misalignment of the plies inside a tire. This creates a sideways push that causes the vehicle to drift to one side. If switching the front tires left-to-right causes the direction of the drift to change, you've diagnosed the problem.

Ahh thanks. Hm, I may need to bring it to the dealer to spend more money to fix this. I do not really have much money to take the tires on and off and switch them.

I did have an accident ovet 2 years ago where I spun out, bent a rim and needed 2 new tires, but as soon as that happened, I got them aligned again, so Im not really too sure.

yeah you should look at the camber numbers, my bet is that they're almost maxed out (look at the range on your sheet). and what is the caster numbers? You sure you didn't bend the frame when you got into an accident?

one thing you could've done is bent the lower control arm, and that's why it's pulling.

repost the caster and camber numbers.
