Ok, I tried to search for solutions to my problem, but the search page is not working for me. Anyone else experiencing this?
Anyway, I recently rotated my tires according to the manual: Put each rear tire into the front position, same side, then take the fronts and switch them to the opposite rear sides. Now, my car is pulling hard to the left. I really have to keep the steering wheel positioned so that I don't drift into the other lane. I checked the pressures-OK.
I thought maybe the alignment might be screwed up, but I have rotated my tires many time before without isssues.
Does anyone know what the problem is?

Its probably becuase you have different amounts of grip on each tire. Are you lowered? Do you have negative camber or bad toe? It is possible that the tires ended up being rotated so that the front two tires have grip mostly on the left side of the tread. Causing the car to pull left?

I am all stock, when it comes to the wheels and body.

I think I might have experienced this problem before on my older car. I think after a about a week, i didn' t notice the problem anymore. Do you think the problem will go away soon, as I continue driving.

Thats gotta be your alignment. if it doesnt bother you, wait a while. But i doubt that it will go away like what your hoping.

where did you rotate the tires at? or did you do it yourself???
last time after i did it at honda dealer, my steering wheel was vibrating like crazy and i told them about it 2 hours later, they didn't bother look at the problem and just "unrotate" it.. everything was back to normal then though..
so don't do it at honda if you don't have to!

First check the air pressure in the tires.
IN the rear it wouldn't have been such a burden.

If the problem persist then go have a have a an alignment check done at sears or a local shop.

Now if this happened after you rotated them, you may have a bad tire. It happened with my car. Had them rotated and it started pulling to the right. I thought the shop had done something to mess with the alignnment, but when I went to get the alignment checked, it was fine, so the tech asked and he suggested checking for a bad tire. Well since it was pulling to the right, he switched the front 2 tires from left to right and the pulling went to the left, so he determined I had a bad tire. I would try that yourself.

If yours is pulling hard to the left, switch the front 2 tires from side to side and see if the problem goes to the other side. If it stays the same, your alignment is probably the cause. If the pulling switches sides, it is probably a bad tire.

PLEASE READ THIS



I feel it is relevant in a sense if you have done everything else... sans alignment and tire check then follow this


EDIT: the guy is referecing his bike in this but it is all relevant to car passenger tires....and please if you have less than 3/32nd's replace the tires...I don't want you to kill yourself or someone else... (general appeal)
