car pulls to the left..then to the right..
Well, I just got my si not to too long. Before I bought the car, the guy had it dropped 4 inches. I told him I'll buy it if he raises up to stock height. Apparently he told me he has done it..but I feel a pull to the left and to the right while I drive. Like the car will pull to the left hard...then to the right hard. All my wheels have no wear on them, all except the back right tire. The inside is all worn out. Now I have new tires and its weird how the back right tire is worn out on the inside. Can any of you help me on what is going on?

no it hasnt..I might have to get it re aligned ..but the weird thing is..It didnt pull to the left or to the right until I got my 15 inch rims. Last week, I was rolling on 14 inch cheap font metal rims..and the ride was perfect. But when I put on the 15's ...it started doing this..

sometimes it might be the road you are driving on... I know on certain highways the groove that is made from big trucks pulls on my wheel in different directions. Does it happen all the time or only on certain roads?

Probably a toe problem.
Make sure all the tires are pointing the right way if they're unidirectional because that's a free check you can do yourself, and then get an alignment.

Some things to check: 1. Any spring damage? If one of the springs is cracked/cracking, that'll cause some serious sway. 2. Bent 15 maybe? 3. Blown strut(s)... not likely if it does it on smooth roads too. 4. could be a camber thing. I'm sure there's lots more. Hope you get things straightened out.

Does it only happen when your shifting?
