lowered your car lately? could be alignment.
hit a curb lately? could be bent a arms or tie rod.
change wheels lately? get tire rotation/balanced.

sounds like a simple alignment but if you are just recently lowered you could need a camber kit quick before the ball joints go.

HOw about the simple things first? Have you checked your tire pressure lately? Have you confirmed that it pulls to the right no matter what road/road surface you are on? Try driving on the highway in the far left lane. Does it still pull right? Remember that it's not uncommon for a car to pull right on a small 2 lane road - due to the crown.
