need your input...

so, before yesterday's event my car had the very slightest pull to the left. i mean, it wasnt anything i was concerned with at all. after the event, after changing the wheels/tires around (all tires are back on the side they came off) the car now pulls ever-so-slightly to the right. im dumbfounded.

oh ya, i know youll prolly yell at me... but i still havent gotten an alignment since i did the suspension work like 6 months ago. my car drives pleanty straight for me to justify not spending that 69.99

Pulling under braking, coasting, or acceleration, or all, huh?

Re: need your input... (exaccord)

how's the tire wear on your wheels...if the tires are worn unevenly...they can cause the car to pull to the side sometimes.

If your car has a lot of miles on it, it may need a replacement tie rod end.

Re: need your input... (areyouasian)

i think the tire that is being moved needs to be replaced and from my understanding, tires on the accord are rotated front to back NOT left to right or in an "X" pattern

Have you checked your tires for even air pressure, that would be my guess.
