LIke the post says, my car pulls really hard to the right. Ive had my car aligned many times and it keeps going back. It seems like sometimes when im driving it stays right in the middle, sometimes pulls to the left, but most all the time if the steering wheel is straight, my car will pull to the right. It almost makes it hard to keep it in the road. I was wondering if anyone else has had this problem. Just to let ya know I have coilovers and 17 in. wheels

Well it doesnt seem like the shop who is aligning your car is doing it properly. Maybe take it somewhere else and explain to them your problem, and see what they say. Also see if your tires are inflated properly, that is also a cause to why cars pull to one side.

Its the road not the car. Your car basically is stiff enough that the crown of the road will feedback through the steering system. Its probably tracking fine, but the road is pushing it off. Chances are, they've got your right side camber set about -.25 more than the left to account for the road crown assuming its factory spec. Have it set more towards even or even reverse the camber bias and it should work itself out.

did you index the coilovers correctly? i remember their was a DIY or a photo how to. i have coilovers with camber kit and my car pulls to the left slightly. i think its because i didnt index the coilovers. also, are any of your shocks blown? because i think a single blown shock can cause your car to go off.

are the coilovers adjusted evenly on all 4 ?

Im not sure what you mean by indexing the coil overs cause ive never had any or installed any. But i cant think of a logical reason why that would cause a pull. And for all pratical reason a blown strut wont cause a pull. You need to get the alignment re-checked and post the specs they set it too. Or post the specs that you may have from the previous alignment and we can tell you if the alignment is the cause or not. Its all a matter of process of elimination

ever getting even correct alignment on a lowered car can ultimately be a pain.

not really, I am lowered and my alignment is great. Car doesnt pull and I have no tire wear whatsoever. My guy has been doing alignments for over 15 yrs.

it could be the castor, which u can't fix

when i got into my accident, my front left castor went off

spec is 2.6 degrees and my was 2.0 degrees. so my car turns left a bit better than it does right. damn, only if i was into nascar racing

Bingo. I used to think my alignment was off on my EM2.....turns out....it was the 215 tires grabbing the CRAPPY roads here in CO.

It's annoying, but it's something you get used to. Besides...it teaches you to keep yer hands on the wheel! lol

Yeah I have an 02 LX with 1.5 drop spings and it pulls to the left. It doesn't do it all the time. Mostly on the interstate. Plus the steering wheel shakes too. That also comes and goes. I've had it aligned twice by two different places and both said it was in spec. I'm running 18's with 35 series tires. A mechanic/friend told me my tires are feathered a little bit but doesn't know if it's the cause. They are balanced perfect. I thought about a new rack and pinion, but I don't want to replace things when I don't need to.
